Australia’s glittering Magic Millions Raceday takes centre stage on the Seven Network this Saturday, when fans will enjoy summer racing’s biggest day, with all the live and free thoroughbred racing action and trackside colour from the Gold Coast Turf Club.
Saturday’s live coverage begins at 12.00pm AEDT on Channel 7, 7two and 7plus and will be anchored by Australia’s pre-eminent sport broadcaster Bruce McAvaney.
Bruce will be joined on the Gold Coast by the 7 Horse Racing commentary team, including Hamish McLachlan, Emma Freedman, Lizzie Jelfs and Jason Richardson, while Kate Waterhouse and Grace Hayden will cover all the trackside fashion and fun from the dazzling event on broadcast and 7horseracing social media channels.
The $2 million 2YO Classic is the highlight of the $11.75 million, 10-race program that includes eight races worth over $1 million each. The stakes are high but there’s a bit of Magic for everyone.
Another highlight is the $2 million Magic Millions Guineas for three-year-olds. Russian Conquest will start as one of the favourites in the event, with the star filly’s main competition expected to come from Yellow Brick.
Magic Millions Raceday is the culmination of a huge week on the Gold Coast with live coverage of the Magic Millions yearling sales available on 7Plus.
Sports fans can strap themselves in for an epic weekend of sport on Seven, featuring the 2023 Santos Tour Down Under, the Big Bash League, Women’s One Day International cricket against Pakistan and the NFL Wild Card round.
