Media Release - Tuesday December 9

We are very proud to release the 2026 Aushorse Investor’s Guide. Each year, this publication offers a snapshot of the strength, momentum and global appeal of Australian racing and breeding, and the story it tells in 2026 is exceptional.

Click to read why Australian racing really is the best in the world.

With record prizemoney, outstanding opportunities for owners at every level, and world-class racehorses succeeding on the international stage, Australia continues to outperform every major jurisdiction.

Whether you are a long-standing owner or considering your first step into the industry, the fundamentals have never been stronger. Australia now hosts more million-dollar races than anywhere else in the world, our yearling market consistently delivers value and returns, and Australian-bred horses are achieving results that highlight the quality of our breeding and training systems. This guide brings those facts together in one place.
