A Joyful Vicbred win

Joyful became the fifth Group 1 winner from Always B Miki’s first two crops after taking out the $130,000 Vicbred 2YO Fillies Final at Melton.

Sent straight to the front by Mark Pitt, Joyful was never headed and she scored a comfortable victory – her fifth in a row.

Bred by Alabar Bloodstock, Joyful is the second foal of the Group 1 winning Mach Three mare Joyfuljoy.

For her sire Always B Miki it was another fine accomplishment in his short career to date.

He has now sired five Group 1 winners with the promise of much more to come.

Always B Miki is standing this season at a fee of $9,350 (incl GST) in Australia and $9,500 (plus GST) in New Zealand.

Alabar will offer a full sister to Joyful at the upcoming 2023 Nutrien Sydney Yearling Sale.
