I Am Invincible - New Winner

Just the one heat for juveniles at Caulfield this morning, but the winner is a powerhouse colt by Home Affairs that looks a lot like Dad!

Stakes-producing mares, several well-credentialled racing and breeding prospects and a share in G1 performer Within The Law are among the highlights of the Inglis Digital December (Late) Online Sale, which is now open for bidding.

I Am Invincible was expected to have the winner in the $1million Group III MRC Thoroughbred Club Stakes (1200m) at Caulfield on Saturday with race favourite My Gladiola coming out of a second placing in the Group I VRC Coolmore Stud Stakes, but it was another daughter of the champion sire that got the cash.

A bright future is being tipped for well-bred three-year-old Day One following his maiden victory in the Barfoot & Thompson 1600 at Ellerslie on Thursday.

It’s been a good day at the office for Kia Ora Stud, who share in the ownership of two stakes-winning juvenile Snitzel colts on Saturday in Blitzburg and Return to Conquer, but the real icing on the cake came with their homebred I Am Invincible filly Inkaruna, who made a winning debut in the $200,000 Group III MRC Chairman’s Stakes (1000m) at Sandown.

A filly with a pedigree that wouldn’t be out of place on the best tracks in Europe was a surprise debut winner at Scone on Thursday in the Australian Bloodstock colours.

The $400,000 Inglis Nursery RL (1000m) is run at Randwick on Saturday with a field of 11 accepting for a race just for 2YOs offered through Inglis sales with the highest priced runner a colt by Wootton Bassett (GB).

For more than a century, Australia’s thoroughbred sales revolved around polished auction rings, bustling sale grounds, and agents hunting for future champions.

With NZB Kiwi favourite Well Written confirmed to run in the Entain/TAB NZ slot in New Zealand’s richest race, attention is now being focused on decisions around other prominent candidates for the $4 million March 7 feature.

Fourth on debut in mid-November behind Capitalist filly Espana, 3yo I Am Invincible colt Tower Bridge went a month between runs and was simply too classy for his rivals at Geelong on Friday, stepping up to the 1230m and racing away for a three and a half length victory.
