Invasor retired following recurrence of old injury

TRAINER Kiaran McLaughlin paid tribute to Invasor after the champion racehorse was retired following the recurrence of an old injury yesterday.

Owned by Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum, the Breeders’ Cup Classic and Dubai World Cup winner will stand at his owner’s Shadwell Farm stud in Lexington.

The five-year-old was being prepared for the Suburban Handicap next weekend when McLaughlin realised all was not well.
