Magic Millions Sale Mail

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday January 7

On the eve of the 2020 Magic Millions Yearling Sale it’s good to take a look at just what horses have made the big races on Saturday for two and three year-olds, who bought them, what did they cost and who sold them.

At $1.4 million, Redoute’s Choice colt King’s Legacy is the most expensive runner in this year’s race, bought by James Harron Bloodstock from the Segenhoe Stud draft.

Race favourite Aim was a $200,000 purchase for China Horse Club / Newgate from the Newhaven Park draft and has a full brother to be offered as Lot 21.
