$1.4Million Filly Goes Two for Two

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday February 7

Bryce Heys is taking a softly softly approach with talented I Am Invincible filly Dancing Alone, who made it two wins in as many starts when scorching the turf at Kembla on Tuesday in a Class 1 sprint over 1000m.

Dancing Alone kicked off her career with a debut win at Canberra last month and followed up with another stylish victory, flattening out to win by three-quarters of a length in a slick 55.86 seconds, which was only just outside the course record.

It was six lengths back to the third horse, so that probably tells the tale of the time.

Dancing Alone was purchased by Heys’s Ellerslie Lodge for $1.4million at the 2021 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale from the Vinery Stud draft and races in the colours of Michael O’Keefe and Veronica King.

$1.4million Inglis Easter purchase Dancing Alone.

She is the first foal of Group II placed Snitzel mare Miles Of Krishan, a half-sister to the Champion NZ 2YO Il Quello Velove.

It’s the family of Group I winning sprinters Terravista and Tiger Tees as well as Group II winning $1.8million earner Ball Of Muscle and Singapore Horse of the Year Super Easy.

The second foal from Miles Of Krishan is a Zoustar colt that will be offered by Vinery as Lot 227 at Inglis Easter this year.

She foaled a filly by I Am Invincible last year before returning to Zoustar.
