He didn't beat much in the Summer Cup at Rosehill on Boxing Day but import Le Roi did it in style. He's improving with every run for trainer Tony McEvoy. He says Le Roi will now return to Adelaide for a let-up. The Cox Plate-winning trainer hasn't yet mapped out future plans but is considering another Sydney attack in the autumn. He says: "The tracks in Melbourne can get a bit hard in the autumn so if he does race it will be in Sydney."
Good to see Chris Waller firing a rocket at Sydney's racing administration. Sydney's premier trainer reckons racing officials need to boost promotion to ensure public holiday racedays don't turn into the ghost town Rosehill was on Boxing Day. Waller says: "I was listening to the radio in New Zealand during the week and they were promoting all the little towns with their big Boxing Day meetings...We've got to get people to the races. Everyone's had their big family day yesterday and want something to do, so why not create a bit of atmosphere and have a short sharp program and get people to the track?"
