In a night that will be remembered
for its dazzle, sizzle and – most importantly – promise of a bright new era,
Eliza Park International, staged its official launch at Crown Casino on
Wednesday 7 August.
Attended by over 300 of Australia's
breeders, owners, trainers and administrators, there was also a large contingent
of owners from Hong Kong and Macau who flew especially for the gala event.
Among the group was Eliza Park
International's new owner, Mr Ting Kong Cheng, one of China's most successful
businessmen and enthusiastic student of all things equine and Mr Chau, Chairman
of the Sun International Group.
Guests (pictured - Cameron
Croucher Director and CEO of Eliza Park International, Danielle Cheng the
Executive Director of Sun International Group, trainer Gai Waterhouse and Mr
Cheng the Vice Chairman of Sun International Group ) were treated to a variety of
entertainment, but the message for the night focused on the future – not just
for Eliza Park International, but the thoroughbred industry at large.
The decision by the Sun
International Group to purchase Eliza Park International has been warmly
welcomed by Australia's racing and breeding community as it not only ushers in
a new age for one of Australia's leading stud farms, it also marks the beginning
of new relationships throughout Asia.
