A member of the red hot Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr stable, Big Sky is the current clear second favourite for the Blue Diamond following his auspicious win in last week's Group Three Chairman's Stakes at Caulfield.

That made it two wins from as many starts for the quality youngster - who sits alongside stablemate and fellow Magic Millions purchase Guest House - as the market leaders for Victoria's feature two-year-old contest.

The current Magic Millions Digital auction has been support by vendors including Archibald Racing, Baramul Stud, Bombora Downs, Jack Bruce Racing, Clarken Racing, Matthew Dale Racing, Darby Racing, Leneva Park, Lyndhurst Stud Farm, Morton Racing Stables, Munce Racing, Pearce Racing and Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott.

Shares in two juvenile colts from the Archibald Racing will provide prospective buyers with unique opportunities to invest in blue blooded youngsters.

One of those is a five per cent share in First Base (Lot 26), a colt by superstar international sire Frankel. The two-year-old is a half brother to multiple Group One winner Nettoyer.

The other is Zousika, with a 10 per cent share on offer in this beautifully bred colt (Lot 30), who as his name suggests is by Zoustar and from the Group winner and Group One placed Fasika. 

Also on offer is a good selection of racehorses, race fillies, shares, two-year-olds, three-year-olds, unbroken stock, yearlings and broodmares. More than half of the catalogue is offered for unreserved competition.
