Zoffany Stayer Wins Wyong Cup

Tara Madgwick - Friday August 31

French bred Zoffany gelding Carzoff (Fr) gave champion trainer Chris Waller another feature race win when taking out the $160,000 Listed Wyong Cup on Friday.

A progressive gelding working his way through the grades, Carzoff surged clear to win the 2100 metre staying test by more than a length with Kerrin McEvoy in the saddle.

Bought from Europe as a tried horse, Carzoff (image Steve Hart) runs for a big group of stable clients and carries the colours of part-owner Nick Vass.
