Joviality Leads an Invincible Trifecta

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday Sep 16

Chris Waller has been going quietly with promising I Am Invincible filly Joviality, who racked up her third straight midweek win at Warwick Farm on Wednesday when leading home a trifecta for her sire in the Benchmark 72 event over 1300m.

Joviality was favourite to beat the older mares and scored by three-quarters of a length taking her overall record to three wins and three placings from seven starts with prizemoney topping $116,000.



She has shown great versatility in her wins claiming success on surfaces ranging from a heavy 9 to a good 3 and can undoubtedly measure up to Black Type company when her trainer finds the right race..

A $330,000 Inglis Classic purchase for Star Thoroughbreds / Randwick Bloodstock  from the Fairhill Farm draft, Joviality was bred by Reg Kemister and is the third winner from four to race from Fastnet Rock mare Limbo Down who comes from the family of Group III winner Handsome Ransom and stakes-winner Danajaya.

Joviality as a yearling

The same purchasers signed for her full sister at Inglis Classic this year for $350,000 and she has been named Affability.

Star Thoroughbreds have had plenty of success with I Am Invincible fillies, notably with Fiesta, who was the Darley Princess Series winner in 2018 and Group I winner Invincibella, who was sold recently at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale for $1.3million.

Joviality was one of four metropolitan winners on Wednesday for I Am Invincible, who has taken an early lead on the Australian General Sires List by winners and earnings.
