After
yesterday’s announcement of an expanded Adelaide Magic Millions Carnival next
February, breeding powerhouses Swettenham Stud and Coolmore Stud have also
thrown their considerable weight behind Adelaide.
Swettenham Stud Australian Director Adam Sangster announced today that the
$250,000 Swettenham Stud Stakes will now be run on the 25th of February 2004.
This move bolsters the midweek Morphetville Program which also carries South
Australia’s richest race, the $400,000 Adelaide Magic Millions.
We are extremely pleased for the Swettenham Stud Stakes to join the Magic
Millions Classic to form one of the feature racedays in the country, Sangster
said.
Our family is delighted to take part in the exciting new Magic Millions Adelaide
Carnival, a great new initiative fronted by John Singleton.
In addition to this news, James Bester of Coolmore Stud has also announced that
it will sponsor a new event on the Magic Millions card, likely to be a 1600m
event for three year-old fillies.
We have agreed to run a race in Adelaide to help further boost the Adelaide
Magic Millions Carnival, said Bester.
Things are still being negotiated but we are delighted to help Magic Millions in
their efforts in Adelaide.
