Karaka Million history
The first Karaka Million was run in 2008 when Vincent Mangano took out the honour for Peter McKay. Since then, the winners have included the likes of The Heckler, Vespa, Melody Belle, which won Group 1 races in Australia, and 2018 winner Advantage.
The Australians have a great record in the race, winning with Sister Havana, Ockham's Razor and Hardline, but neither three of those horses were able to perform well on the race track again.
Officials added the Karaka Million 3YO in 2018, which was won by Scott Base. It was seen as a logical step to ensure purchasers weren't just buying two-year-old speed horses and destroying New Zealand's rich history of miler-stayer breeds in the process.
