Our Ladbrokes’ insider Magic Millions QTIS Open tips 2024 will be available below leading up to the Gold Coast Magic Millions Races.

  • To Win: #1 Rothfire ($3.60 at time of publish) – BET NOW

The Magic Millions QTIS Open welcomes seasoned warrior Rothfire whose class and Soft track form defy his hefty 61kg top-weight. Rob Heathcote’s $3 million earner lugged 60kg to victory last start at Toowoomba on New Year’s Day, and the Group 1 winner is a danger again looking set to lump the kilos and salute for the punters. Last winter’s Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap runner-up should handle a rain-affected track in another plus for the six-year-old warhorse.
