Terrorway, who is unbeaten in six starts, left for Queensland yesterday, after a change of ownership.
He was accompanied by stablemate Christian Brother, who has been sent to Australia to race because of the low level of stakes in New Zealand.
"Terrorway won six races but just under $20,000 in stakes," Graeme Anderson, his co-trainer and part-owner said.
The level of stakes was at odds with the cost involved with policing the industry, he said.
"We now have one of the most tightly policed racing jurisdictions in the world and the lowest stake levels."
Terrorway and Christian Brother will join the stable of John McCarthy. Terrorway has been bought by Kevin Jeavons, of Perth. The rising 5yr-old Western Terror-Rejoicing gelding was trained at Westwood Beach by Anderson and Amber Hoffman.
Anderson shared the ownership of Terrorway with Wendy Muldrew and Brian Sceats, of Wingatui.
McCarthy drove Terrorway in a workout at Cromwell last week after flying to Queenstown.
Terrorway, a $26,000 premier yearling sale purchase, began racing in January and his most recent win was at Forbury Park on July 1.
Christian Brother has won three races from eight starts and been twice placed.
Jeavons is a part-owner of Washakie, trained by McCarthy. Washakie has won 34 races and more than $A1 million in stakes. His wins include the Treuer Memorial at Bankstown in 2009-10 and the 2009 Australian Pacing Championship.
Washakie was sold to Australia as a 4yr-old after the gelding had won 11 races in New Zealand for Cavalla Bloodstock and Pukekohe trainer Steven Reid.
Washakie finished second to Blacks A Fake in the Sunshine Sprint at Albion Park on Saturday night. Blacks A Fake rated 1.54.5 for the 1660m (mobile). It was the 72nd win for the rising 11yr-old who has amassed $A4.5 million in stakes. He won the Sunshine Sprint in 2007.
Anderson and Sceats have also sold Weasel to Australia.
The Mach Three gelding won at Forbury Park last month and had two placings in three starts when trained by Billy Heads.
Tom And Grace, another recent winner, has been sold out of the Anderson-Hoffman stable to Australia.
