Magic Success Brings New Buyers to Sledmere – Part Three

Sponsored Content - by Tara Madgwick - Thursday January 2

Past success makes for future winners so a visit to the Sledmere Stud draft is one likely to be well rewarded.

$2million earner Invincibella was sold by Sledmere Stud at Magic Millions When you can hang your hat on a $2.4 million earning horse like Invincibella, you just know every buyer will be stopping in to see what you have to offer at Magic Millions in 2020.

Sledmere Stud under the care of Catriona and Royston Murphy has soared to new heights with a growing list of successful sales graduates headed by remarkable Group I winning mare Invincibella.

A $185,000 Magic Millions purchase for Star Thoroughbreds from the Sledmere draft in 2015, Invincibella is one of those rare thoroughbreds that has improved in every season of racing.

A two time winner of the $1million Magic Millions Filly and Mare in 2018 and 2019, Invincibella attained Group I success this year when taking out the Tatts Tiara and has the overall record of 11 wins and 12 placings from 42 starts with earnings just shy of $2.5million.

Champion New Zealand based sires Savabeel and Pins have established a powerful nick that has had plenty of exposure with 71 winners from 112 runners with 13 stakes-winners headed by G1 winners Savvy Coup and Brambles at 11.6% stakes-winners to runners.

At Karaka you will see plenty of this mix, but at the Gold Coast there is only one colt bred this way and Sledmere will offer him as Lot 757 .

The full Sledmere daft can be seen here with some highlights below:

Lot 654 Filly Sebring x Prosperity (NZ), by Iffraaj (GB)


Lot 737 Filly Flying Artie x Scrum, by Flying Spur



Lot 739 Colt Not a Single Doubt x Sebrina, by Sebring

Lot 757 Colt Savabeel x Shandream, by Pins




Lot 788 Filly Sebring x Solid Bullet, by Encosta de Lago



Lot 790 Filly Redoute’s Choice x Songs of Vienna, by Umatilla



Lot 828 Colt More Than Ready (USA) x Sunday Chill, by Flying Spur
