Once a year in January the Gold Coast hosts the Magic Millions Carnival. It is 10 days of polo and racing but the real purpose is the Yearling sales. This year over 800 yearlings went up for auction, the cheapest sold for $15,000 and the highest price reached for one Colt was $1.7 million. To start the week they have an informal race down at the beach which is always such a wonderful sight to see. My favorite part is after the run when they let the horses go into the surf. This year the surf was a little to rough for them to go in any further than the edge.
