The richest race
in Australia on Saturday was the
$1million Group 3 ATC Concorde Stakes (1000m) at Randwick,
which is seen as a starting point for
Everest contenders
and victory this year went to brilliant I Am Invincible mare
I Am Mare
, who held off a determined charge from the mighty
Bella Nipotina.

Both mares are trained by Ciaron Maher,
and both turned in fantastic runs with
I Am Me
favoured by an inside draw and her impeccable first up record.
Given a cosy run in transit by Nash Rawiller she hit the front with 50m to run thanks to
a sizzling change of gear
and then had enough to hold off her stablemate to
win by a neck
with the time for the 1000m a
slick 55.97 seconds
with the final 600m in
32.5 seconds.
A Dynamic Syndications colour bearer, I Am Me
has been a slow burn horse for Ciaron Maher, nurtured quietly through the early stages of her career which started with a maiden win at Canberra and a Class 1 at Ballarat in early 2022.
She has improved with every year
that has passed and now boasts the overall record of
10 wins and five placings from 22 starts
with prizemoney topping
$3.1million.
"Bella Nipotina, the Everest will definitely be the target. I Am Me, we probably have to consider it now,"
said
Johann Gerard-Dubord,
representing the Maher stable.
"She has come a long way and she has improved every prep.
"She loves these conditions; these fast tracks and she has got a very good record first-up. The gate helped and it was a very good ride from Nash (Rawiller)."
Rawiller
was full of praise for
I Am Me,
who had a frustrating autumn with
three starts in Group 1 races
that produced a
third and two fourth
placings.
"She was amazing, wasn't she? I was surprised, because I really dove through that gap, came off Way To The Stars' back, and as soon as I produced her, I thought, I'm in trouble, because, you know, obviously, Bella Nipotina was coming,"
Rawiller said.
"I thought she'd out-tough me, but I loved the character of my horse. She picked up and really just wasn't going to lay down."
I Am Me was bought for $210,000 at Inglis Premier.
A $210,000 Inglis Premier purchase
from the
Segenhoe draft
for
Dynamic Syndications / Dean Watt Bloodstock, I Am Me
was bred by
Sheikh Mohammed Bin Khalifa Al Maktoum
and was raised and grazed as a foal at
Coolmore.

She is the first winner from
Mefnooda,
a metro winning half-sister by
Medaglia D’Oro (USA)
to Group 3 winning filly
One Last Dance
and daughter of Group 3 winner
One World.
Mefnooda was bought by Cambridge Stud
at the 2019 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale for
$450,000
and produced a filly last spring by Too Darn Hot (GB) and was then covered by Satono Aladdin (Jpn).
I Am Me is the first stakes-winner of the new season for Yarraman Park’s reigning champion sire I Am Invincible.
