One to Watch – Sunshine Coast

Tara Madgwick - Sunday March 20

Champion trainer Tony Gollan unleashed an exciting I Am Invincible two year-old colt at Sunshine Coast on Sunday that won as he pleased as an odds on favourite.

Nettuno was heavily backed to win the 1000m maiden despite the heavy 8 track and got the job done in style.

He travelled on the pace and accelerated away from his rivals to win by four and a half lengths with Hellbent filly Quicken Up best of the rest.
 



A $500,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Yarraman Park draft for Gollan Racing/John Foote Bloodstock/Black Soil Bloodstock, Nettuno runs for a partnership that includes Segenhoe and Yarraman Park, who also bred the colt.

Nettuno as a yearling.

He is the fifth winner from five foals to race from Group III winning Galileo mare Saint Minerva and is bred on the exact same cross as $3million earning Group I winner Invincibella, who is also by I Am Invincible from a daughter of Galileo.

Yarraman Park sold the yearling colt by Hellbent from Saint Minerva at Inglis Premier this year for $210,000 to Dullingham Pty Ltd and he is her final foal.
