Snitzel Filly Tops Magic Millions Gold Coast Weanling Sale at A$550,000

[Wandering Eyes]

The 2025 Magic Millions Gold Coast Weanling Sale saw high demand for the top lots throughout the day, with eight standout weanlings hitting at least A$300,000, headed by a Snitzel filly who went the way of North Bloodstock for A$550,000.

Offered by Highgrove Stud, she is the ninth live foal out of the stakes-placed O'Reilly mare Acquired, with the others including Splintex, a full-sister to this filly who was successful in the G2 Arrowfield 3YO Sprint, G2 Bobbie Lewis Handicap and G3 Hall Mark Stakes. Another sibling by Exceed And Excel is the Listed scorer Invictus Salute.

Since producing this weanling Acquired has been served by Golden Slipper winner Shinzo.

“She's a beautiful type with great length and great scope,” North Bloodstock's Mick Malone said of the top lot. “She has a lot of O'Reilly about her. Her mother was a beautiful mare and she looks a bit like her mum.

“It may change, but at this point, we are planning to race her.”
