From starting barriers to tote prices and last start form, racing is a sport that relies on numbers.
When taking a closer look at the miRunners two-year-olds that have already debuted this year, it becomes clear that numbers don’t lie.
2 x 2YO’s to have hit the track this season: Dusty Tycoon and Fixated
2 $2 Million Races: $2M The Star Gold Coast Magic Millions 2YO Classic and the 2020 Inglis Millennium
2 x Months: January and February
Dusty Tycoon, a $176,000 purchase from the January 2019 Gold Coast Yearling Sale, was a clear standout for the miRunners bloodstock team of the 1157 lots catalogued.
One year down the track, the Robert Heathcote trained filly proved the potential of racing premium-bred thoroughbreds with miRunners.
Victorious in her first two race starts at the Sunshine Coast and Doomben, saw her cement a spot as a leading qualifier in the final 16 horse field for the Magic Millions 2YO Classic.
Despite finishing 14th, the excitement that filled the miRunners community throughout the entire journey was electric.

The journey for all involved in miRunners is set to continue this weekend when Fixated a $290,000 yearling purchase from the Sydney 2019 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale, contests the 2020 Inglis Millennium.
FIXATED- Hinchinbrook x Gaze colt
The talent displayed by this colt was evident from his first race start at Caulfield in January when the Lindsay Park stable said “The whole team is exceptionally pleased with Fixated’s run yesterday. A great debut.”
Now at only his second race start the son of Hinchinbrook is heading back to where the ride began, Warwick Farm. Home to the Inglis sales complex, Fixated was one of 450 catalogued lots in the Easter sale alone.
The Inglis Millennium is open to all two-year-olds purchased from the sale ring of any eligible Inglis Select horse sale. With Fixated one of the final 14 starters in the field, it is impressive to note the quality of thoroughbred chosen by miRunners.
