Gary Moore has had a winner with the first runner from his new Australian training venture with Shengli successful at Scone on Friday.
Formerly with Paul Messara, Shengli made his debut in a three-year-old maiden over 1300 metres, leading all the way to win by a length.
Moore, a former champion international jockey, has been training in Macau for the past decade and will close his Asian stable after Sunday's final meeting of the season.
He is heading towards his eighth Macau premiership.
Moore trained in Australia for a few years from the late 1990s and was granted a new licence from the start of this season.
He has boxes at Rosehill where Hong Kong's Cox Plate hope Dan Excel, who races for Moore's brother John, is preparing for his spring campaign.
