2026 Magic Millions 3YO Guineas Tips
2026 Magic Millions 3YO Guineas Best Bet - Ninja
Ninja progressed from a debut third to claim victories at his next two starts in Sydney earlier in his career.
He opened his summer campaign with a solid third in the Magic Millions Pierata Plate at Doomben on December 6, a race won by the promising Grafterburners.
The Michael Freedman-trained gelding appreciated the rise to 1300m at his latest outing.
Settling off the speed, he produced a strong finish to score a comfortable win in the Vo Rogue Plate on January 3.
Ninja finds a thin edition of the Magic Millions 3YO Guineas and, providing they can make ground at the Gold Coast, he looks very hard to beat.
2026 Magic Millions 3YO Guineas Value Bet - Dragonne Rouge
A sharp second-up improver could be Dragonne Rouge, a filly who impressed early with a winning hat-trick to open her career.
That sequence included a Listed victory and success at stakes level by her fourth appearance, and there were excuses in that first defeat.
She was first-up off a decent spell via her Listed return at Eagle Farm over 1200m, interestingly arriving there without a public trial.
That run saw her settle back in the field and she was also a notable late drifter in the market.
With knocks on many rivals who bring inferior form or have been well beaten behind Ninja, Dragonne Rouge could be a left-field blowout option.
