Incredible Quality in Magic Millions Virtual Sale

Media Release - Monday July 21

A breeding right to the world's most prolific sire - by elite level strike rate - will stand alongside a swag of stakes performed fillies and mares in next month's Magic Millions August Virtual Sale, with the initial catalogue unveiled today.

The Magic Millions Virtual Sale format has proven successful with a string of seven figure results including Espiona, Marabi and Sheeza Belter, and will again showcase a quality line up of stock on Tuesday, August 5.

This year’s edition, will see a breeding right to champion Newgate Farm based sire Extreme Choice go under the hammer alongside two shares in Cool Archie's sire Cool Aza Beel and the ultra-consistent, super sire in All Too Hard.

Extreme Choice

Standing this spring at a fee of $330,000 (inc GST), Extreme Choice has firmly established himself as one of the globe’s hottest stallions. He is the fastest Australasian stallion this century to sire five individual Group One winners, delivering an elite-level performer every 23 runners — a strike rate unmatched in the modern era.

His strike rate (4.17%) of Group One winners to runners is truly elite. Superseding the legendary sires Frankel, Galileo, Dubawi, Redoute's Choice, I Am Invincible, Snitzel and Written Tycoon, just to name a few. 

To stand alongside recently announced star sprinter Olentia, a host of high-quality race fillies will feature in the catalogue — including the blue blooded racemare Vienna Princess.

Vienna Princess is a half sister to the Group Two Danehill Stakes winner First Settler, an exciting young stallion standing his first season at Yulong in 2025.

Recent stakes winning mare Fortunate Kiss will also go under the hammer along with stakes performers Left Field, Mixed Spice, Regal Vow and Express Yo'self straight off the track and ready for the breeding barn.
