Daughter of I Am Invincible offered as broodmare.
Group 1 winner Invincibella (I Am Invincible) has been retired and will be offered at the Magic Millions National Broodmare and Weanling Sale which will begin its four-day run on the Gold Coast on July 20.
The mare won 12 times including last year's Tattersall's Tiara (Gr 1, 1400m) and four times at Group 2 level which saw her amass $3,075,103. The mare also completed the rare feat of landing three consecutive runnings of the Magic Millions Fillies and Mares Plate (1300m) at the lucrative race day in January.
Purchased for $185,000 by Denise Martin's Star Thoroughbreds at the 2015 Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale from the Sledmere Stud draft, Invincibella will undoubtedly be highly sort after being out of the Galileo (Sadler's Wells) mare Abscond and by Australia's leading stallion in I Am Invincible (Invincible Spirit).
The mare is half-sister to Listed winner and Group 2-placed gelding Secret Blaze (Sizzling). Abscond herself is a half-sister to Group 1-placed Light Up Manhattan (Manhattan Rain).
Further back the mare's third dam is Listed scorer Taciturn (Noble Bijou) and she produced eight winners, headed by Group 1 winner The Hind (McGinty) and Oregon Star (Oregon) - who was successful at Listed level.
Today we farewell @StarTbreds Group 1 winning mare Invincibella who was also the first horse to win the Magic Millions Fillies and Mares 1300m $1million race, three consecutive years! A pleasure to have around the stable, she will now be prepared for the @mmsnippets Mares sale. pic.twitter.com/dIhes2k4EV
