$700,000 for Mare in Foal to I Am Invincible

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday May 27

Consigned by Yarraman Park and in foal to their champion sire I am Invincible, one of the early highlights at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale on Wednesday was young Spirit of Boom mare Mighty, who sold for $700,000.

A fast metro winning half-sister to brilliant multiple stakes-winner Isotope, Mighty was passed in at this sale last year, but with the addition of a positive test to I Am Invincible hit the target with buyers.

Mighty sold for $700,000 in foal to I Am Invincible.

She was snapped up by Hall of Fame Bloodstock with Craig Anderson of Amarina Farm signing the docket for the filly, who has an impressive pedigree dual Group I winner Yankee Rose, the dam of Japanese Champion 2YO and 3YO Filly Liberty Island.

Anderson was quick to highlight the positives for a young mare that made $300,000 at Magic Millions as a yearling.

“Being in foal to I Am Invincible and we liked the great pedigree that we have had something to do with in the past,” he said.

It’s a family on the up as Isotope was sold at this sale in 2023 to Yulong for $2.3million and she has a yearling filly by Alabama Express, a colt to follow by I Am invincible and is back in foal again to Alabama Express.
