Three-time Everest winner Kerrin McEvoy sees a lot in improving Growing Empire heading into the $20 million test.
Kerrin McEvoy has won more Everests than any other jockey and will become the only jockey to have competed in all eight runnings of The Everest after picking up the ride on Growing Empire in this year’s edition of the $20 million slot race.
“He is still learning and there is still improvement to come, so we don’t know how high he could go.” On that day, Growing Empire ran second in a maiden on debut at Randwick’s Kensington track but ran out after the post and through the outside fence and was lucky not to be seriously injured.Maher sent Growing Empire back to Melbourne and immediately won at Listed level in the Valley Pearl before adding the Breeders’ Stakes in Adelaide to finish his two-year-old season.
