Justify (USA) has 29 entries.

"We are incredibly proud to present the catalogue for the 2026 Gold Coast Yearling Sale," Magic Millions Managing Director Barry Bowditch said. 

"This sale is firmly established as the best producing auction in the country - no better example being the six Group One winners from the 2024 sale - the competitor's edition achieved none." 

"From recent legends like Winx, Imperatriz and Alligator Blood to new pin-up performers Apocalyptic, Autumn Boy, Charm Stone, Cool Archie, Ole Dancer and Stefi Magnetica - the Gold Coast Yearling Sale delivers year after year." 

"Our team has worked hard in bringing together a catalogue packed with athletic yearlings that we think will give their buyers the ride of their life."

"While the Gold Coast is renowned for producing short course performers such as Golden Slipper winners, our graduates are stars in the Classic races - from Guineas' to Derbies and Oaks' and let's not forget Knight's Choice - last year's Melbourne Cup winner!"
