"Western Australian bred gallopers have a proud history of succeeding at the elite level," Magic Millions Managing Director Barry Bowditch noted. "From Perth, across Australia, through Asia and even Royal Ascot, the results speak for themselves." 

"Each and every year we present a quality line up of yearlings in the Swan Valley and 2026 will be no different with strong support of the state's leading thoroughbred breeders." 

"The 2026 catalogue is packed of quality and we can't wait to welcome vendors and buyers alike to the Swan Valley in February," Bowditch added.

Featuring in the catalogue are (at least half) relations to group winners including Bustler, Music Magnate, Portland Sky, Western Empire, A Lot of Good Men, Awesome John, Buster Boom, Comrade Rosa, Ektifaa, Ima Single Man, Super Smink, Swift Witness, Chaillot, Live to Tell, Rocketing By and Siren Assault.

There are dozens of lots from stakes winning mares. They include Kay Cee, Bantry Bay, Dainty Tess, Lubiton, Platinum Rocker, Zoushine, All Friared Up, Brave Angel, Caipirinha, Chantorque, First Affair, Impetuous, Lonsdale Lady, Mizlecki, No Looking Back, Premardal, Rebel Assault, Single Spice, Snowchino and Stellar Vista.

The build up to the 2026 sale will hit fever pitch with the massive Magic Millions WA Raceday at Pinjarra Park on Saturday, 14 February - Ladies' Day and Valentine's Day wrapped into an event that will really deliver lots of love! 

"The day will feature $600,000 in prizemoney and Magic Millions Racing Women's bonuses run exclusively for sale graduates - it's a real highlight on the WA racing calendar and the perfect way to set up a massive week in the West," Bowditch reported.

"Inspections will start in the Swan Valley on the Sunday and continue through Wednesday before all eyes will be on the sale ring on Thursday and Friday (February 19 and 20)."

"So many of our clients tell us the Perth Yearling Sale is right up with their favourite auctions across Australasia. With that history of producing quality racehorses and the enjoyment they have in the West - it's a combination hard not to love!" 

"As the locals say - West is Best - and it's fitting," Bowditch added. "If you haven't been to a Perth Yearling Sale before - lock it in in 2026."
