    Ciaron Maher has done it again! Unit Five ($8)<\/strong> made it look easy on the big stage, storming home to take out the 2026 Magic Millions 2YO Classic<\/strong> in spectacular fashion. Jockey Tom Stockdale timed his run to perfection, guiding the Supido colt from off the speed to sweep past a high-quality field including Tornado Valley. Following a dominant debut at Caulfield, Unit Five proved he is the real deal by conquering the Gold Coast at only his second outing. With Maher now a three-time winner of the race, all eyes turn to the autumn where this “blue-blooded” youngster looks the one to beat.<\/p>\n\n\n

    The Magic Millions 2YO Classic is a $3 million, Restricted Listed feature race held at the Gold Coast Racecourse in Queensland each January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Magic Millions Day on the Gold Coast is one of the country’s richest race days offering around $12.5 million in prize money across the card, which is restricted mainly to Magic Millions graduates and horses that won a ballot exemption into a race via one of the special lead-up events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Open to two-year-old Magic Millions graduates, the Magic Millions 2YO Classic is contested over 1200m at set weights with the winner taking home over $1.7 million in prize money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Horses that perform well in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic often head south to Melbourne during the autumn to target the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes<\/a> (1200m) at Caulfield and Sydney for April’s Group 1 $5 million Golden Slipper Stakes<\/a> (1200m). Capitalist (2016) was the last two-year-old to complete the lucrative Magic Millions 2YO Classic – Golden Slipper<\/strong> double<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    More recently the 2022 Magic Millions 2YO Classic winning filly Coolangatta ran third in that year’s Golden Slipper results before a win in the spring’s Group 1 Moir Stakes<\/a> (1000m) further franking the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
