Geese That Lay Golden Eggs – What’s in the Future?

Tara Madgwick - Saturday January 11

The 2025 Magic Millions Yearling Sale was highlighted by just 13 yearlings that sold for $1million or more which was 10 less than last year when 23 were in the millionaires club following on from 20 in 2023.

$3.2million Home Affairs filly from Sunlight - image Magic Millions

Coolmore’s star producer Sunlight was on top of the list with her third foal, a filly by Home Affairs topping the sale at $3.2million. Sunlight was bought in 2020 at MM National by Tom Magnier as a broodmare prospect for a then record of $4.2million and her first three foals have all sold for upwards of a million with the trio netting $6million all up.

The dam of the $1million Stay Inside colt from Bleu Zebra was covered by Don Corleone..

The mares below have all been covered by high profile sires last year with the exception of Bleu Zebra, who went to Extreme Choice’s Group I placed son Don Corleone, who stood his first season at Eureka Stud last spring at a fee of $13,200 and covered 133 mares.
