Description

2.5% share available in $1.1m yearling and Listed Winning 4yo gelding - Godfather by I am Invincible out of Gr 2 winning dam, Meliora – Godfather – Recently commenced his second preparation with Edge Thoroughbreds

Godfather was lightly raced when we purchased him having won the Phelan Ready Listed on debut. In his first prep for us, he won on debut at Ipswich in a class 5 and finished 2nd twice at Eagle Farm and Sunshine Coast in BM78’s. There were some excuses in his other runs. He started this prep with a very strong 3rd (in a big field of 15) in the Provincial Sprinters Series Heat at the Sunshine Coast on 8 June.

He'll be back racing metro in Brisbane on 28 June or 2 July - Buy at this auction and be racing in a few days with a city class gelding.
