What’s News

Jake is thriving during his Pre-Training

Jake (Graff x Correlate) is currently in Pre-Training at Thenford Farm, Victoria. He is enjoying a variety of work whilst getting his fitness up. The team are thrilled with him and he is in super condition. We’re looking forward to seeing him head into the track again at Cranbourne soon with the Price Kent Racing team!

Hear from our Head of Bloodstock, Mick Malone on his excitement for Donny!

Michael Freedman is arguably in the best training form of his life, following five Group wins in the past three weeks. We are thrilled to have a 2YO colt by Pinatubo (IRE) in work with him. The miRunners Bloodstock team just couldn’t leave the Inglis Classic sale without this colt & we cannot wait to see what the future holds for him. Hear from our Head of Bloodstock, Mick Malone on what drew him to Donny that first day he saw him at Sledmere Stud.

Working in close partnership with our clients, Newhaven Park offers an exclusive experience backed up by the highest standards of integrity and an absolute – historic – commitment to success.” – Newhaven Park website, 10/10/25

Newhaven Park is home to Johnny’s sire Xtravagant (NZ) and they are renowned for selling top quality race horses with a particular focus on 2YO success. Newhaven Park graduates boast an impressive record, horses like this years Group 1 J.J Atkins winner COOL ARCHIE, undefeated and now Group 1 winner AUTUMN GLOW and her brother, the Group 1 Golden Rose winner and now exciting young sire standing at Newgate Farm – IN THE CONGO.

Our Xtravagant gelding XTRAVAGANT JOHNNY is currently enjoying a short spell following his first preparation with Tony Gollan, where he showed super speed and talent in his Jump Out. His second nomination toward The Golden Slipper, 2026 has now been accepted… the world is your oyster, Johnny and we will be there every step of the way cheering you on! Could he be the next Group 1 winner for Newhaven to add to their strong list of elite graduates?

The Cobar Weekly: miRunners feature

See below our Newspaper article of COBAR! He’s becoming very popular in the town of Cobar, New South Wales, and rightly so!

Star Ambition sets his sights back on Doomben

Star Ambition will head to Doomben for his next race start. Throughout this preparation Gerry is putting it all together and building on each and every run, you have to dismiss his finish at Eagle Farm where he was significantly hampered towards the closing stages 2 starts ago. Gerry is a very happy and sound horse and we can’t wait to see him back at the races in the next few weeks.

Jumpers off, tees on – miRunners has you covered.

Spring is here and summer is just around the corner so it is time to put the jumpers away and grab a fresh tee! Our miRunners signature shirt is the perfect pick, featuring the miRunners logo on the chest. Designed in a regular fit with a classic crew neck, it is made from 100% combed cotton for ultimate softness and comfort. Plus, it is pre-shrunk to minimise shrinkage, so it keeps its shape all season long.
