Not only is Tony McEvoy establishing a permanent base at Flemington, he is preparing to move his horses from Hawkesbury to Sydney's premier training facility at Randwick.

McEvoy, who also operates a stable at his South Australian property at Angaston, said the move to Randwick had been prompted by a reluctance from owners to have horses trained outside the city.

"I have always wanted to go to Randwick. It's where everyone wants to be," McEvoy said.

"I don't know how many boxes I will have. It's up to the Australian Turf Club but they have told me there will be some but not how many.

"People don't want to send their horses to Hawkesbury to be trained for some reason.

"They have great facilities but Randwick is where I need to be."

An ATC spokesman said McEvoy was likely to have up to 20 boxes.

Peter Moody recently closed his Randwick stable and Kevin Moses is in the process of moving his horses out after a cobalt ban was reinstated on Wednesday by the NSW Racing Appeals Tribunal after the trainer won an appeal before the Racing NSW Appeal Panel.

McEvoy will have 16 permanent boxes at Flemington after sub-letting stables throughout the spring.

"I've had horses at Flemington for a while but now I will have my own which makes it easier," he said.

The trainer will have just one runner at Randwick on Saturday, two-year-old Da Vine Warrior who runs over 1000 metres.

The gelding is by Darci Brahma and is among the more precocious of the breed.

"I paid $150,000 for him at Karaka and it was never my intention he would be running before Christmas," McEvoy said.

"He is only a little fellow and what he is doing now is a plus.

"I wouldn't have a sounder horse in the stable and I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do."

Da Vine Warrior was a barrier trial winner over 760m last Monday week.
