Held at Ellerslie Racecourse, it is New Zealand's richest race, with a stake of NZ$1,000,000. The race is restricted to two-year-olds who were sold through the New Zealand Bloodstock Yearling Sales held at Karaka. The race was run for the first time in 2008, replacing a similar race held at Te Rapa. Horses eligible for the Karaka Million can also be entered in an associated race the Karaka Three Year Old Mile (1600 m, NZ$200,000) the following year. From 2018, New Zealand Bloodstock announced a second $1,000,000 race for three-year-olds as well as the $100,000 Karaka Cup which horses can enter for the duration of their career. Any horse purchased as a Yearling through the NZB sales is eligible to enter the series, and the two $1,000,000 races are held on the eve of the National Yearling Sales Series.
