When MyRacehorse announced it was expanding into Tasmania, the news alone was enough to spark curiosity. But when the ownership powerhouse stepped into the Magic Millions Tasmanian Yearling Sale and secured the Capitalist x Speedonova filly for $120,000, curiosity quickly turned into genuine excitement.

For many, this wasn’t just another yearling purchase. It was a statement of intent — that Tasmania’s breeding and racing landscape is worth investing in, worth believing in, and worth building into the national conversation.

A Filly With Presence — and Pedigree

The filly herself has done nothing to dampen the enthusiasm. Athletic, balanced, and already carrying the look of a professional, she represents the best of what Tasmanian breeding can produce.

She’s by Capitalist, the Golden Slipper winner who has become one of Australia’s most commercial young sires, and out of Speedonova, a mare with a perfect record at stud. Her family is steeped in local success, tracing back to Tasmanian Guineas winner Nova Clause — a nod to the strength and reliability of the state’s broodmare band.

For MyRacehorse’s first Tasmanian purchase, she feels like the right fit.

Gandy Takes the Reins

Trainer Stuart Gandy has been entrusted with guiding her career, and he wasted no time in getting to know his new charge. He recently visited her at Armidale Stud, where she has been spelling since the sale.

Gandy came away impressed — and eager.

“She will spend another three weeks there before heading to our stable to be broken in, and we are really excited to get her broken in and see her progress,” he told shareholders.

It’s the kind of update that resonates with owners, especially those dipping their toes into racehorse ownership for the first time. MyRacehorse has built its brand on access, transparency, and shared experience — and this filly is already delivering on that promise.

A New Chapter for Tasmanian Ownership

The arrival of MyRacehorse in Tasmania feels timely. The state’s racing industry has momentum, its studs are producing quality stock, and its trainers are proving they can compete on the mainland. What has been missing is a large‑scale ownership platform capable of bringing new people into the sport.

This filly may be the catalyst.

With shares offered at $99 for a 0.015% interest, she opens the door for everyday Tasmanians — and racing fans across Australia — to be part of something bigger than a single horse. She represents a shift toward broader participation, deeper engagement, and a more connected ownership experience.

More Than a Purchase — A Signal

MyRacehorse didn’t just buy a filly. They planted a flag.

They chose a Tasmanian‑bred yearling. They chose a Tasmanian trainer. And they chose to make their first local investment one that celebrates the state’s breeding strength and racing heritage.

For an industry built on hope, belief, and the thrill of possibility, this feels like the start of a story worth following.
