Media Release - Wednesday September 26
Magic Millions are conducting their annual breeze up sale for ready made two year-olds next month and when it's all about education and turning talent into racetrack success there are few better conditioners than Melanie O'Gorman, whose breeze up drafts from last year have already produced four winners this year.

A good breeze up is not a grand final, but it is the first step on the path to a successful racing career and the proof is in the pudding.
