$400,000 Invincible Filly a Grand Investment

Tara Madgwick - Thursday October 23

A three-quarter sister-in-blood to dual Group I winning mare Charm Stone, stakes-placed I Am Invincible filly Naifah always looked well bought at the 2025 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale for $400,000.

Offered at the Gold Coast by her breeder Emirates Park, Naifah had three starts on her resume that included a stakes-placed in the Listed SAJC Cinderella Stakes and the two year-old was snapped up by Silverdale Farm/Andrew Williams Bloodstock.

Transferred from the Tony and Calvin McEvoy stable to the care of Mick Price and Michael Kent Jr, who also put the polish on her close relation Charm Stone, Naifah made her first start for new connections at Hawkesbury on Thursday.

Tuned up with a recent barrier trial win, Naifah accelerated smartly for Tommy Berry to power clear and win the 1000m maiden by two and a half lengths.

She is the first foal of Najmah, a metro winning half-sister by Snitzel to $2.5million earner Charm Stone and also stakes-winner Najmaty from Group III winner Najoom.

There are plenty of fillies in this family being bred to the best sires and Naifah looks a sound investment that might bring even more success on the track before she heads to the breeding barn.
