Interesting use of PR
A very interesting (and good) use of PR by Magic Millions this morning when a media release identified weekend runners who were also first acceptors for the $400K Magic Millions Adelaide 2YO Classic in 3 weeks time.

With attention on Karaka and also a strong weekend of racing coming up courtesy of - at Flemington - the G1 Lightning Stakes, G3 The Vanity and The Debonair and the million dollar Inglis 2yo championship; at Rosehill - the listed Millie Fox Stakes and Parramatta Cup, G2 Silver Slipper, G3 Frederick Clissold Stakes; and at Morphetville the G2 Woodlands Stud Breeders' Stakes, G3 RN Irwin Stakes, and the listed CS Hayes Memorial Cup it was a savvy way of returning people's attention to the Gold Coast auction company and build some anticipatory 'buzz' for the forthcoming sale.

Please find following a list of first acceptors for the $400,000 Magic Millions Adelaide 2YO Classic (1200m) who are racing this weekend.
