Jockeys' Championship leader Shane Foley bagged his 66th winner this season as he steered the Ger O'Leary trained Born Invincible to an 18/1 maiden win in the opening division of the King John's Castle Handicap at Limerick today.

Foley held the daughter of Born To Sea up towards the rear for much of the race but produced her with a well timed challenge in the home straight as the pair powered home to eventually lead close home and score a length and a quarter win over Enter The Red

Born Invincible was last year trained by O'Leary's now assistant Adrian Joyce and today scored from a rating of 49.
