Magic Millions Online is the new home for internet based thoroughbred sales and launches this week with the Cornerstone Stud Unreserved Reduction Sale.

Comprising 69 lots including black type winning and producing broodmares and quality weanling prospects, the sale will offer breeders and buyers a unique opportunity to invest in quality stock without leaving home.

All horses offered will be showcased with photos and videos and all the information buyers seek prior to placing an online bid. 

"This is an exciting new chapter for the company," Magic Millions Managing Director Barry Bowditch said.

"We have been working on this world leading technology for some time and after being approached by the Cornerstone team we felt it was time to launch Magic Millions Online."

"The process will be easy for prospective buyers - after registering and receiving approval they can bid for their desired lot." 

It's fitting that the first auction being conducted to launch Magic Millions Online is a reduction sale for one of the country's most famous and historic thoroughbred dynasties.

"We are excited to be working with Magic Millions on the launch of their online platform," Cornerstone Stud Managing Director Sam Hayes said.

"There will undoubtedly be some bargains despite the recent success clients have had either pin-hooking or racing weanlings raised and sold by Cornerstone Stud," Hayes added.

Cornerstone's neighbour McEvoy Mitchell Racing will offer three race fillies including Not a Single Doubt's stakes winning daughter Westport.

The Cornerstone Stud Unreserved Reduction Sale bidding process will commence at 3pm (AEST) on Thursday 30 April and conclude at 3pm (AEST) on Tuesday 5 May.
