Invincible Filly Wins G3 Proud Miss

Tara Madgwick - Saturday May 19
A brilliant stakes-winner at Flemington in March, I am Invincible filly She's So High was not beaten far in two subsequent runs in Group company and broke the ice at that level with a stylish victory in the Group III SAJC Proud Miss Stakes in Adelaide on Saturday.

Prepared by Mick Price, She's So High surged home from back in the field to score a length win in the 1200 metre sprint as favourite.

She's So High as a yearlingA $120,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Amarina Farm draft for Blueblood Thoroughbreds, She's So High was bred by Kambula Stud and was originally sold by them at the Magic Millions National Weanling Sale for $65,000.

She is a half-sister to Group III placed Bangs and is the second winner from minor winning Exceed and Excel mare High Achiever.

High Achiever was anything but that as a racehorse, scoring one win from five starts, although her pedigree suggests there is more to come as she is a grand-daughter of Announce, who is also the grand-dam of high flying siblings Shooting to Win and Deep Field.

High Achiever was covered last season by Widden Stud's young first season horse Stratum Star.

She's So High is one of 31 stakes-winners for I Am Invincible and has the overall record of three wins and two placings from nine starts with prizemoney in excess of $343,000.
