Why just place a bet this racing season when you can secure your unit in a premium racehorse and experience the buyer’s journey for only $15.
With the racing season and Melbourne Cup fever among us, thousands of Australians will be having a flutter or participating in office sweeps during the big race. But the race is brief and the excitement is momentary.
For around the same amount of money you can secure your ownership in a premium racehorse and experience the thrill of racing and ownership continuously.

While many Australians dream of watching their own horse run past the finishing post many doubt ownership is accessible to them.
This has changed with the miRunners model. Now made affordable and accessible for all Australians, you can experience the buyer’s journey and take the first steps to secure your unit as an owner in the next miRunners horse.
One of Australia’s leading trainers – Mick Price – has signed-on to train the next miRunners horse which is planned to be purchased at January’s Magic Millions sales at the Gold Coast and for $15 you can purchase a Priority Access Voucher.
Not only does the Priority Access Voucher give you a priority window to purchase your ownership unit once the horse has been bought, it allows you to experience the buyer’s journey.
miRunners will be scouting around 1,000 yearlings ahead of the auctions to decide which horse is the best purchase. As a Priority Access Voucher holder, you will have exclusive access to our insights.
You’ll receive:
- Video updates from our chief scout when accessing horses
- An insider’s view to our thinking and strategy behind yearling purchases
- An invitation to be there at the Magic Millions auction as we look to purchase a horse
- An exclusive live stream of the auction for those that can’t make it
With Saganaki – the first miRunners horse – selling out before barrier trials had even begun, it is a good idea to secure your unit in the next horse to avoid the risk of missing out. To reward the early commitment of those who buy a Priority Access Voucher, we will waive the first two months of fees when you purchase an ownership unit.
Once the horse is bought
Once the horse has been purchased, the total price will be split into 1,000 equal units and made available to those who purchase Priority Access Vouchers.
The unit price will depend on the purchase price of the yearling (eg: Saganaki was bought for $165,000 so unit prices were $165). This next horse price guide may be anywhere between $165,000 and $275.000 ($165 to $275 a single unit).

No matter what the purchase price of the horse is, the monthly fee will be $15 for your first unit (and $5 for any additional unit). This covers everything: training, transport, food, insurance, vet costs, admin, insurance etc. Monthly fees are committed for three years.
While priority access gives you first access to the next horse, there is no further obligation to buy. If there are any unsold units left after the priority window, they will be offered to the general public.
