About
Nordic Invader, a 3yo chestnut gelding from Australia, is trained by Stephen Massingham in Cairns. He is out of the dam Reina Danzante and by the stallion Invader. To date he has secured two career victories. His most notable triumph came on 9 Sep 2025 at Townsville, winning the $23,000 Qtis 3‑y‑o Maiden Handicap. The horse has been a reliable money‑maker for bettors; backing him across his career would have yielded a 9% ROI.
