The scene is set for next weekend's $10.25 million The Star Gold Coast Magic Millions Raceday after a string of quality performances across the card on Day One of the Carnival on Saturday. Animate, Stolen Jade and Yao Dash all proved too classy in their respective $250,000 Magic Millions feature races on the same card that youngsters Swift Witness and Finance Tycoon impressed. Animate was a $115,000 Gold Coast Yearling Sale purchase for Australian Bloodstock from the draft of Arrowfield Stud and his prizemoney swept to $417,000 after his latest victory. Stolen Jade extended her unbeaten run this campaign to four when she comfortably won the $250,000 Magic Millions Rising Stars (F&M) for trainer Clarry Conners and jockey Brad Stewart. Boosting her earnings past $292,000, Stolen Jade was a $120,000 Gold Coast Yearling Sale for Conners' Victory Lodge from Baramul Stud in 2018. Just over half an hour later Yao Dash scored a brilliant win in the $250,000 Magic Millions Rising Stars (C,G&E) for trainers Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott and jockey Nash Rawiller. A $90,000 Gold Coast Yearling Sale purchase for Dynamic Syndications, Yao Dash gave the Newhaven Park team plenty to cheer about with the victory. Newhaven, who sold Yao Dash, will offer a Spirit of Boom half-sister next week at the 2021 Gold Coast Yearling Sale. She is Lot 680. Yao Dash meanwhile will back up in next Saturday's $1 million Pacific Fair Magic Millions Cup.
