The catalogue for the 2025 Perth Magic Millions Yearling Sale has been released comprising 350 lots on Thursday and Friday, February 20 and 21.
Darling View Thoroughbreds leads vendors with 28 lots – its first stand-alone sale since commencing a decade-long partnership in the recently dissolved Western Breeders Alliance. Other consignors include Alwyn Park (22), Mogumber Park (19), Gold Front Thoroughbreds (18), Yarradale Stud (16), Mungrup Pty Ltd (16) and Scenic Lodge (16).
Champion WA sire Playing God (37 lots) leads the stallion numbers from fellow Darling View resident Splintex with 36 first-crop entrants. They’re followed by Rommel and Shooting To Win with 15 lots apiece.
“The Perth Yearling Sale is one of our most popular and anticipated auctions all year,” Magic Millions managing director Barry Bowditch said. “We always look forward to hosting clients from across the state and country, as well as from overseas, to the Swan Valley.
“Year after year the sale presents the cream of the WA crop and our team is confident the 2025 catalogue will deliver again for buyers. Western Australian bred and sold horses have a reputation for class, toughness and durability – they measure up in top grade in so many tough racing jurisdictions around the world.”
The 2025 line-up includes yearlings by 83 individual sires, including 11 with first-season representatives.
In a boost for buyers, 337 of the 350 lots are either Westspeed Breeder Nominated or Westspeed Platinum, while 83 lots are BOBS eligible and dozens more eligible for other interstate schemes from Queensland to Victoria.
All lots offered at the auction are eligible to be paid up for the $20 million plus Magic Millions Race Series, which incorporates 28 races across all six states for horses of all ages at distances from 1000 to 2200 metres.
