One to Watch – Gosford

Tara Madgwick - Thursday June 12

This I Am Invincible two year-old colt was sent around on debut in the Listed MRC Debutant Stakes last spring finishing out of the money, but the ability he showed back then came to fruition at Gosford on Thursday.

Injured out of his debut stakes race last spring when he emerged with a stress fracture, Jimmy Recard has been given plenty of time since then and it looks like paying off.

Trained by Ciaron Maher and ridden by Jason Collett, Jimmy Recard had a quiet trial last month in Sydney preparing for his return and was easy in the market for this 1100m maiden pitted against a short priced favourite from the Waterhouse Bott stable in Just Legendary.

Just Legendary looked set to score until Jimmy Recard chimed in with a big run and was strong right to the line winning by nearly a length.

Jimmy Recard was a $350,000 Magic Millions purchase from Yarraman Park for Bennett Racing Pty Ltd/Ciaron Maher Bloodstock and runs in the Bennet Racing colours.

Jimmy Recard was a $350,000 Magic Millions purchase from Yarraman Park.

Bred by Gall Bloodstock, he is the second winner from Group III placed Alamosa mare Aquamosa (NZ), who comes from an international Black Type family.

Bennett Racing also purchased the yearling full sister to Jimmy Recard at Magic Millions this year for $290,000.

Aquamosa has a filly to follow by Hellbent and is back in foal to him again.

Jimmy Recard is the 12th 2YO winner this season for Yarraman Park’s champion sire I Am Invincible and five of them are stakes-winners headed by Group I winning colt Vinrock.
