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.

Watch this exciting Shamexpress colt breezeA licensed trainer with years of experience dealing with quality thoroughbreds, O'Gorman has the knack for preparing a youngster so they are ready to blossom in the next stage of their career.

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.


"We're looking to build on the success we achieved last year and have a terrific draft of seven colts including a stunning type by successful young sire Shamexpress and an appealing colt by the always popular Choisir," said Melanie O'Gorman.
