miRunners Update August 2023

Hi Everyone,

We are thrilled to share some exciting news with you all, that all 5 yearlings have been nominated for the prestigious Longines Golden Slipper Stakes. This race is one of the richest two-year-old races in the world. Held under set weights conditions, this race is considered one of the four recognised ‘majors’ in Australian Racing.

We are looking forward to seeing Fixated tackle the final preparation of his career. He was made to work in his recent jump out on the grass at Doomben and we are looking forward to seeing him have a trial and possibly race in a midweek race at Eagle Farm early September.

Zoushack has settled into Eagle Farm very well. I was lucky enough to spend the morning with Rob Heathcote and the team at Heathcote Racing last week.  Shacky was super chilled in his work and I struggle to remember seeing a more relaxed easy going horse.

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to all the miRunners owners who made the effort to attend the Gold Coast Turf Club to meet the Star Turn colt and the fantastic team from Edmonds Racing & Fan Fave. It was truly a memorable morning, and we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Toby & Trent Edmonds, as well as Bret and Kristy Calkin, for taking such great care of us.

Lastly, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all of you for your ongoing support. Each one of you plays a significant role in the miRunners community, and we appreciate your dedication and enthusiasm.

Together, we are creating an incredible platform and pathway for everyday Australians to have an opportunity to experience racehorse ownership of impeccable bloodstock while taking on some of the Giants in the sport of kings.

Regards

Mick

FROM THE TRAINERS

It was a great update from Shannon Betts at Emeran Park last week on the Pierata x Global Dream colt, who has adapted well to his new surroundings. The whole team at Emeran are very impressed with how strong this colt is looking and they are excited for his future.

Buy into this colt now for just $282 per unit & $16.27 per month (includes 2.1% merchant fee).

CURRENT HORSES AVAILABLE

Due to the unfortunate news regarding the Better Than Ready colt trained by Tony Gollan, miRunners have reopened sales in all available yearlings until August 31.

TRACKSIDE

Zoushack & Fixated both head to Rob Heathcote!

Zoushack and Fixated are back together again at the stables of QLD trainer Rob Heathcote.

Last week, miRunners GM Mick Rees went to visit the boys and is happy to report that they are both thriving in their new environment! We want to thank all the owners from NSW, VIC and SA who have been to the races and supported Zoushack or Fixated. Bring on QLD!

Star Turn x Divergence makes a return!

The young Star Turn x Divergence colt has made a return to the vibrant racing scene of the Gold Coast. This marks the midpoint of yet another training phase guided by the skilled hands of Toby and Trent Edmonds. Currently engaged in pace work sessions, the colt is also slated to participate in barrier jump-outs.

Toby Edmonds advised that he is happy with the way he is performing in these training sessions. The horse is showing good progress and demonstrating a keen willingness to absorb and execute the instructions provided.
