First Season Sires – Super One

Tara Madgwick - Thursday January 3
Our series on Magic Millions first season sires continues with the focus falling on Newgate Farm's Super One, a Champion 2YO with speed to burn.

Super One as a yearlingBy outstanding sire I Am Invincible, Super One made his mark first in Singapore where he was the undefeated Champion 2YO in 2015 and from just four starts in Australia was able to score a brilliant win in the Group III SAJC DC McKay Stakes, a race also won by his sire in 2009.

Super One was a $190,000 Magic Millions purchase and retired lightly raced with five wins from eight starts. 


He is a half-brother to Group II placed Super Too and comes from a North American female family featuring some diverse bloodlines that has also produced Les Arcs, the Champion Older Sprinter in the UK in 2006.

I Am Invincible has made a promising start to his career as a sire of sires with Brazen Beau already the sire of leading Golden Slipper contender Tassort and for buyers now priced out of the I Am Invincible range, Super One is true to type and producing some strong athletic individuals.
