What people are saying about Tattersalls Millions
Michael Jarvis
"The Tattersalls Millions are races that I always have in mind throughout the year... if I have an animal that I feel has the ability the Tattersalls Millions are a great opportunity."
Richard Hannon
"The Tattersalls Millions races are a great incentive for owners in terms of great prize money and for them to buy horses at Tattersalls and target the Million races."
Aidan O'Brien
"The Tattersalls Millions, especially in their new format, provide owners with the opportunity of landing major prize money...We were lucky enough to win one of the Tattersalls Million races with Lillie Langtry, who of course went on to win this year's Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot."
James Fanshawe
"the fact that the horse (Society Rock) was already eligible for the Tattersalls Millions was a major part of our decision to buy him... It was fantastic to win the Tattersalls Million Sprint for Simon Gibson and to then follow up with second place in the Group 1 Golden Jubilee Sprint at Royal Ascot."
