Gold Coast Race 3 - Magic Millions The Debut 2Yo Plate
The $500,000 The Debut. Tricky race to assess with all runners facing the starter for the first time. EXCELOQUENT (4) was a dominant Doomben trial winner before Christmas and is sure to be well-educated out of the Tony Gollan stable. By a boom sire out of a Listed winner and a bright start to the career would not surprise. STEEL KNIGHT (1) has had a few trials in preparation for this including a win here before the new year. A bold showing is on the cards. SAYTARA (10) gets the deadly Waterhouse/Bott/Clark combination and they have a strong record with the youngsters. Respect any market confidence. DARN HOT LADY (3) put them to the sword in a recent trial here and can play a role in the finish. FOREIGN PRESS (5) next in line.

Two-year-old filly lining up for debut and went for AUD $140,000 (Magic Millions 2024 Gold Coast Yearling Sale) at the sales. Half-sister to four-time winner Miss Tambo. Dam was an 11-time winner and Listed performed. Readied for this with a dominant trial win, scoring by 4.5 lengths at Gold Coast over 850m on December 31. Impressive winner at her only trial and stable strike-rate with debutantes is strong.

First starter. Two-year-old filly by Better Than Ready out of Wonderful Lass AUD $60,000 (Magic Millions 2024 Gold Coast March Yearling Sale) purchase. Half-sister to five-time winner and Group 2 performed Snapchat Girl. Dam was a winner of four races and Listed placed. At the most recent trial finished fourth on December 31 at Gold Coast over 1000m. Would rather give her a miss unless there's a hefty move in the market.

Filly by Hellbent on debut. Half-sister to five-time winner and Listed placed Joviality. Dam was a winner of one race and Group 3 performed. Has looked handy in her trials leading into this. Runner-up in a Rosehill trial over 900m on December 23. Breaks from a low barrier draw so could well play a big role.

Two-year-old filly (Harry Angel - White Slipper). Dam was an 11-start maiden. Will no doubt benefit from the three trials prior to her debut today. Was second in a Gold Coast trial over 850m December 31. Recent trial at Gold Coast was encouraging enough so respect any betting activity.

Colt by Winning Rupert making his first appearance. Half-brother to three-start maiden Prophet Steel. Dam was a 12-start maiden. Trial form indicates he's up to a solid debut. Won trial at Warwick Farm over 799m on January 3. Looking for a good debut showing with the assistance of an inside draw.
