In 2025 the Gold Coast Yearling Sale produced Australasia's most expensive yearling - the Home Affairs filly from Sunlight - who sold for $3.2 million to Japan.

Magic Millions sold the most expensive yearling in Australia in 2025.

"With proven performance at all levels of the market across our Gold Coast, Perth, Adelaide and Tasmanian locations, we present a Sale Series that is backed by our energy and drive to achieve commercial success across the 2026 yearling crop," Magic Millions Managing Director Barry Bowditch said.

"The Gold Coast Yearling Sale is a festival like no other celebrating equine excellence - with the the strongest buying bench in the country on hand, as the finest Australasian yearlings take centre stage in the theatre created by the buzz of the Magic Millions Carnival."

"We are proud to boast about the best auctioneers in Australia and achieving more individual buyers than any other yearling sale in the Southern Hemisphere, in turn providing greater year-on-year returns direct to our vendors."

"The 2025 edition delivered at all levels, generating the highest priced yearling sold in Australasia, the highest amount of new international investment as well as the highest number of unique buyers in the middle market."

"Offering yearlings at the 2026 Magic Millions Yearling Sale Series provides vendors with exclusive access to the greatest marketing tool to support the sale of your stock – the Magic Millions Race Series."

"More than $20 million and 28 races every year. There is simply no better Race Series in the world."

"A national program of races that provides rich prizemoney opportunities across all ages, classes and distances supported by world-first innovation with initiatives such as The Syndicate and The Debut races plus the ground-breaking Magic Millions Racing Women’s initiative that has changed the narrative of ownership globally."

The Magic Millions incentive race program offers unrivalled opportunity!

"In 2026 we introduce an exciting new format for the Gold Coast March Yearling Sale with the sale now open to all Australian and New Zealand bred yearlings. The sale will continue to showcase outstanding QTIS stock plus providing a new opportunity for all breeders to participate on the Gold Coast this Autumn."

Bowditch said the Magic Millions team, located across Australasia, was perfectly positioned to assist breeders in placing their stock in 2026.

"Each and every year we provide the perfect springboard for the next stars of the racetrack in the sale ring. Our team looks forward to working with our breeders and vendors in placing stock in an auction where the best possible returns are realised."

"We look forward to working with breeders across Australia and New Zealand in producing high quality catalogues that attract buyers from around the world - finding the next Magic Millions graduate to star for their stable," Bowditch added.
