A striking grey colt by Yarraman Park Stud's super sire I Am Invincible topped the Saturday night action as the Gold Coast Yearling Sale extended its record-breaking form. Following the hugely successful $10.25 million The Star Gold Coast Magic Millions Raceday, the action switched back to the sales complex with three hours of sales action to round out Book One. Annabel Neasham teamed up with her Bloodstock Manager Brian McGuire to secure the Villa Verde colt from the Kia Ora Stud draft for $1 million. "I loved him," Neasham said. "I saw him twice on the farm at Kia Ora and I loved him the first time and when I went back for my second looks, I loved him even more. It has been a long week waiting for him to come through on the final night, so I am delighted to get him, especially being from a great farm in Kia Ora." Shane Wright, Bloodstock and Breeding Manager from Kia Ora Stud, was delighted with the result and the week as a whole. "We're delighted to get two million-dollar horses in the week, it's amazing," he said.
