I though she might be very green as she hadn't seen any grass gallops due to the recent dry spell. However, Invincible Spirit's offspring don't need much training and she showed a nice turn of foot, and plenty of speed. We'll look for a Listed race over six furlongs next and while there is one at The Curragh next Friday, it might come a bit too quick for her. She has a mix of speed and stamina in her pedigree and is sure to go seven furlongs.
