One to Watch – Seymour

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday Mar 5

I Am Invincible leads the way with two year-old winners this season and added a 13^th to the tally at Seymour on Tuesday with a debut victory for a talented filly, whose full brother will be offered at the 2019 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale.

Sent off a short priced favourite, the Brent Stanley trained Invincible Lotus led all the way to win the 1100 metre maiden by a length and a half.

A big strong filly, she was a $400,000 Inglis Premier purchase from the Rosemont Stud draft for Cloud 9 Thoroughbreds and is the first winner for Al Maher’s high class Group II winner Oasis Bloom, who was also fourth in a Group I VRC Myer Classic.

Rosemont Stud as agent for Saconi Thoroughbreds will present the current yearling from Oasis Bloom, a colt by I Am Invincible, at Inglis Easter next month as Lot 157.

Oasis Bloom sadly lost a foal last year by Written Tycoon and is now in foal to Sebring.
