Magic Millions Vendors 2027 – That Widden Feeling!

Tara Madgwick - Sunday Nov 8

The release of the 2027 Magic Millions Yearling Sale has seen a change in the ranking of vendors by representation with Widden Stud taking over from Yulong as the biggest vendor at this sale.

Widden Stud are basking in the glory of having sold $2.8million Snitzel colt The Next Episode at this sale in 2025 and just last week he became a new G1 winner sold by Magic Millions when taking out the sire making G1 VRC Coolmore Stud Stakes at Flemington.

Widden will offer 70 yearlings – 10 by their champion sire Zoustar- in 2027, which puts them ahead of Newgate (63), Coolmore (62) and Yulong (59).

The Yulong draft is dominated by their sires as you would expect with 18 by Alabama Express, 13 by Pierata, 9 by Written Tycoon and 7 by Lucky Vega (IRE), plus four from the first crop of Panthalassa (Jpn).
