Trained by Ciaron Maher and David Eustace, Hafey was a hot favourite for the 1100m maiden and proved a class above for Craig Williams striding clear for a powerful three and three-quarter length win.
 



Hafey was a $525,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Coolmore draft for Rosemont Victorian Alliance / Suman Hedge Bloodstock (FBAA) / David Redvers Bloodstock and was bred by Emaroo Bloodstock.

He is the first foal from Group I placed import Beat the Benchmark (USA), a half-sister by Speightstown to stakes-winner Abraham.

Beat the Benchmark has a yearling colt by American Pharoah (USA), a weanling colt by Pierro and was covered lats year by Wootton Bassett (GB).

Hafey is the fifth two year-old winner this season for I Am Invincible with those winners including three stakes-winners – Cythera, Queen of the Ball and Ebhaar.
