Dates Announced for MM 2YO's in Training Sale

Media Release - Monday February 27
Australasia's best performing breeze up style auction, the Magic Millions Gold Coast 2YOs in Training Sale, will be conducted on October 10 and 11.

Officials have confirmed the details and will stick to a proven sale programme to enable vendors to maximise their returns in 2017.


"We are proud of the fact that the Gold Coast 2YOs in Training Sale has produced the highest clearance rate of any Australasian 2YO sale each and every year for the past five years," Magic Millions Managing Director Vin Cox said.

"The sale hosts the biggest international and Australian buying bench of any comparable sale and we will be making a concerted effort in attracting an even stronger domestic market. The sale has a great story to tell and the success of graduates around Australia and the world is outstanding - we'll be encouraging everyone in Australia to participate."

The 2YOs in Training Sale in 2015 saw a 60 per cent increase in returns to vendors across the board and the 2016 auction again led the way on clearance - the best barometer to a successful sale for vendors and buyers alike.

Breeze up sessions in the lead up to the auction will again be held at Seymour, Warwick Farm and the Gold Coast - these dates will be confirmed soon.

For further information vendors can contact the Bloodstock Department of Magic Millions on (07) 5504 1200 or email bloodstock@magicmillions.com.au.
