They are tough. They are brave. And they get results. Kiwi thoroughbreds have an innate depth of quality to them – drawn from the land, from the people and from the bloodlines unique to New Zealand. They’re just built differently. Tap into the well of Kiwi talent at Karaka 2025.

The five action-packed days of selling are headed by Book 1, set to commence from Sunday 26 until Tuesday 28 January from 10am (NZT) each day, while Book 2 will begin directly after, on Wednesday 29 (12pm start) and Thursday 30 January (10am start).

The stage is set for a week-long thoroughbred extravaganza in Auckland, starting with an extraordinary TAB Karaka Millions race day at Ellerslie Racecourse on Saturday 25 January. The six-race card now carries total stakes of more than $5 million, headed by the $1m TAB Karaka Millions 2YO (1200m) and the $1.5m TAB Karaka Millions 3YO (1600m) for graduates of the sales. All yearlings purchased at Karaka 2025 are eligible for the Karaka Millions Series.
