Value Packed 2025 Tasmanian Yearling Sale Catalogue Online

Media Release - Tuesday November 26

Renowned by buyers for its quality and value, the Tasmanian Yearling Sale has a proud history of producing racetrack stars right across Australia and with a quality catalogue this coming February that tradition looks set to continue.

Quercus Park, on the outskirts of Launceston, will again play host to the state's premier thoroughbred offering with the auction to be held on Monday, February 24.



A top class offering of 126 yearlings, by in excess of 50 individual sires, has been catalogued for 2025. Some 89 of the 126 lots are TasBred, 10 lots are VOBIS Silver and 33 lots are VOBIS Sires.

Much interest will surround the stock by eight first season sires - Acrobat, Extreme Warrior, Portland Sky, Quick Thinker, St Mark's Basilica, Tiger of Malay, Wild Ruler and Wooded.

"Like so many buyers, we love the Tasmanian Yearling Sale," Magic Millions Managing Director Barry Bowditch said. "The yearlings offered each year at the sale get the best possible start with the pristine environment in which they are born and raised."

"It's no surprise when these horses develop into highly talented racehorses and feature regularly in the winners' stalls at tracks across Tasmania as well as the mainland." 

"Speaking with the team, led by Tim Brown, who brought the catalogue together, I'm confident this proud sale history will continue to flourish."

The build up to the 2025 Tasmanian Yearling Sale will intensify on Sunday February 2 with the staging of the Magic Millions feature races on the Apple Isle.

Launceston's Mowbray Racecourse will play host to the $85,000 Magic Millions Tasmanian 2YO Classic, a race which also carries a $10,000 Racing Women's Bonus, and the $75,000 Magic Millions Tasmanian 3YO & 4YO Classic.

Earlier this year those feature races were captured by the quality performers Ms Tasmania and Cartoon Graveyard who are set to feature over the upcoming Tasmanian Summer Racing Carnival.

All lots offered on February 24 are eligible to be paid up for the world leading Magic Millions Race Series - boasting 28 races and well in excess of $20 million in prizemoney and bonuses nationally each year.
