New Zealand Cup hero Copy That is going to spend his summer in Australia with an earlier than expected leaving date.
The Pukekohe star was always likely to head across the Tasman in the new year with the changes to the domestic racing calendar that have seen the Auckland Cup put back until May 27.
But, while races like the Del-Re National A. G. Hunter Cup at Melton and Miracle Mile in Sydney were obvious targets worth a combined $1.5 million, Copy That could start his Australian summer far earlier at Cranbourne on December 18.
