The Jeep Magic Millions is the largest sales incentive race day in the world, where only graduates of the Magic Millions Sales are eligible to compete for the $4.7 million prize pool. The Magic Millions Sales and race day has established its reputation on the international racing scene, and has fast become a “must attend” event worldwide for buyers, punters and fashionistas!

It really is an amazing 12 days on the racing calendar where everything equine is melded with everything social and results in one of the best experiences you can have anywhere in the world. Even the Barrier draws for the main races are performed on the famous Surfers Paradise foreshore where one of the spectacles to greet the attendees is actual thoroughbred race horses sprinting along the beach!

Of course there is the amazing ‘Fashions on the Field’ competition that really does bring some high class fashion and beautiful women to the track. This year in 2014, the event will be hosted by international model, VJ, MTV presenter and recently appointed Myer Ambassador Kate Peck seen here.
