Description

6 x 2.5% shares available in $1.1m yearling and Listed Winning 4yo gelding - Godfather by I am Invincible out of Gr 2 winning dam, Meliora – Godfather – Entering 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 doesn’t like a firm track and a poor ride on another occasion.


He’s completed pre-training including learning to swim at Hinterland Thoroughbreds and has returned to Matt Dunn’s stable and is scheduled to trial on 22 April at the Gold Coast. He’s a regular Saturday metro runner and with improved fitness this time in, we are looking forward to seeing him back in the winners stall again this prep.


Some video footage from his first prep with Edge:

11/4/25 – Matt Dunn Audio - https://cdn.prism.horse/media/0785debfcdea4e0199404b61fc15d6d3.mp3


At Edge, we’re a new breed of syndication - offering horses with A rated pedigree or better, strong potential and at an affordable price. In our first year:
- 4 runners - all winners.
- 37.5% winning strike rate.
- We retain at least 10% in every horse we syndicate, meaning we have skin in the game and only do well when our owners do well.


Edge is offering additional limited shares in Godfather prior to his second prep as part of our planned growth and expansion in 2025. Godfather offers affordable entry into top-quality ownership; and we have aligned interests - we race alongside you.


Godfather is available for inspection and vetting at Matt Dunn Racing during the sale.


Important Information:
Shareholders will be bound by the relevant PDS and Syndicate Deed.
Upon purchase, you will be required to sign the Syndicate Deed. Edge Thoroughbreds makes no representation regarding current or future soundness.
