$1.65Million I Am Invincible Colt from Golden Slipper Winner

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday January 10

Emirates Park enjoyed the ultimate racetrack success winning the Golden Slipper with quality filly Mossfun, who then started her stud career in Europe before returning home in 2019 and her third foal born back in Australia was the star of the show at Magic Millions on Tuesday.

Consigned by Emirates Park, the half-brother to Group III ATC Festival Stakes winner Dajraan (Frankel) was the obvious standout on day one and duly sold for $1.65million to Hawkes Racing.

Team Hawkes trained his mother Mossfun, so will no doubt look forward to seeing what this powerhouse colt can do and they will have a good clue to his potential as they are training his two year-old full sister for Emirates Park called Mathkhoora.

She had one trial back in October finishing second at Randwick and is currently in work.

Mossfun had a filly by Capitalist last spring and was then covered by Tassort.
