The highly anticipated The Star Gold Coast Magic Millions Raceday, set for this Saturday, 11 January 2025, is on track to be one of the biggest events in Australian horse racing, with $14.5 million in prize money across a thrilling ten-race program. While the excitement is building,
The Gold Coast racecourse has been given the green light for Saturday’s $14.5 million Magic Millions race day following a test gallop by top jockeys earlier this morning.
Six jockeys assessed the track’s condition after a key section was suspiciously poisoned in what is believed to be an act of sabotage last week, plunging Queensland’s premier racing carnival into chaos.
Magic Millions co-owners, Gerry Harvey and Katie Page said jointly, “Thank you so much. Despite the challenges, this Magic Millions week has been a spectacular success so far and it is thanks to the people of the Gold Coast, the people of Southeast Queensland and the entire horseracing community from across Australia and around the world. You have been amazing.
