With six yearling sales across four states, the Magic Millions Yearling Sale Series is complemented by the world’s richest Race Series featuring the annual $10 million Gold Coast Raceday.

"Our sales series conducted across four states offers ideal options to showcase yearlings at every level - all aimed at providing breeders with the greatest sale outcome," Magic Millions Managing Director Barry Bowditch said.

"Saying 2020 has been a year like no other is without doubt an understatement. As we plan ahead amidst the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, we recognise how important it is for each and every breeder to achieve the very best possible return."

"Diversity and depth of buying bench are critical to yearling sales success. With 88% ($157.3m) of sales gross from Book One of the 2020 Gold Coast Yearling Sale attributable to domestic buyers, it's the consistent high level of investment that has instilled stability and continual growth in the market."

Gold Coast Yearling Sale – 13-19 January
Perth Yearling Sale – 15-16 February
Tasmanian Yearling Sale – 22 February
Adelaide Yearling Sale – 9-10 March
