Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 11 Journalists Share Posted October 11 Mike Moroney is recuperating well from a major health scare, with the popular Flemington-based trainer looking forward to a prosperous spring. Moroney has been back at work at Flemington this month after he spent many weeks in hospital since April with a range of serious ailments and he said the time away from the sport he loves has reinvigorated him. “I’ve been back at track now around about a fortnight,” he told RSN927 on Friday. “Things are going great and I’ve got a real enthusiasm for the whole thing. “They say when you are on the sidelines now and then you come back bigger and stronger and I am feeling that way. “You get stopped in your tracks a bit and you reconsider what are the important things in life. In saying that, I’ve been one of the lucky ones as from the time I was young, my passion is what I make a living out of.” Moroney said his new training partnership with Glen Thompson has injected ‘some youth into the place’, while also paying tribute to his staff, led by racing manager Anthony Feroce, for their efforts in maintaining his Ballymore stable in his absence. Moroney said he has high hopes this spring for Melbourne Cup entrant Whisky On The Hill as well as for promising three-year-old Plymouth, a four-year-old War Machine and Run Harry Run, who is one of three stable runners in Saturday’s Listed Weekend Hussler Stakes (1400m).
