(Photo by Scott Barbour/Racing Photos) Joao Moreira, the celebrated Brazilian-born jockey, has expressed his interest in making Australia a more permanent base—if he can secure his family’s approval. In recent months, Moreira has been frequently traveling between Brazil, Australia, and Japan. After working with his Golden Eagle (1500m) ride, Ascoli Piceno, at Canterbury on Wednesday, he shared his enthusiasm for a possible move to Australia but noted that his family’s consent remains uncertain. “If I was going to make the call right away, I’d be making Australia my home by now,” Moreira stated. “Don’t forget, I’ve got a family and I’ve got to make sure I can convince them this would be the best place for them to live. “I have been trying and so far, it is just conversations and discussions, but nothing has been confirmed so far.” Horse racing news View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
