Steven Burridge may not hold the ace in the pack anymore, but is glad he will not be without a runner in the 2023 Singapore FourYear-Old Challenge.
Long touted as the front runner to the 4YO series, his Street Of Dreams was suddenly out of the race after sustaining a high suspensory tear in the Kranji Mile at his last start on May 20.
Half an hour after Street Of Dreams' disappointing ninth place in the marquee $1 million race, his Australian trainer got some consolation in the last race - and even an idea for a stand-in.
Stepped up in grade to Class 3 level, Invincible Tycoon came off an ideal stalking position throughout the 1,400m before powering away to an impressive win for regular partner Marc Lerner.
Up until then, Burridge and the Lim's Stable had not really toyed with the idea of a tilt at the 4YO series for the son of I Am Invincible.
With their mainstay out, one door closes and another just opens.
It remains to be seen if that door will lead to a second straight feature success for Burridge, after Mr Malek captured the Group 3 Kranji Sprint (1,200m) last Saturday.
