Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>The 26-year-old will relocate to Perth and join Chris and Michael Gangemi\u2019s stable after riding at Launceston on Wednesday. Louis is no stranger to local racing and his having his third stint in the west after commencing his apprenticeship in Mauritius in 2015.<\/p>\n

Being back in WA will revive fond memories for Louis after he booted home his first winner with his first ride on Miss Merit in Kalgoorlie. Five years after making his WA debut, Louis said the opportunity to return to a leading stable was too good an offer to knock back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to be back and put it this way, I\u2019m back home,\u201d Louis told The Races WA.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a long journey and I always wanted to come back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI went back to home after my first time in Perth, did alright, came back again, went back to Mauritius, but the timing wasn\u2019t good with injuries.<\/p>\n

\u201cI went to Tasmania and had a bit of success but the Gangemi\u2019s offered me a chance and I said why not.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey supported me towards the end of my last stay and have always kept an eye out for me.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey said they have a lot of horses coming through and why didn\u2019t I come back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had an offer to go to Melbourne, but it didn\u2019t feel like the right move and I have contacts in Perth.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think going to the Gangemi\u2019s is going to be a good move and I don\u2019t think it could have gone better.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast time I was in Perth I was probably immature, but I feel like I\u2019m a better rider now.<\/p>\n

\u201d Louis still maintains a 3kg city claim as Tasmanian wins are not classified to have metropolitan status.<\/p>\n

Michael Gangemi, who trains in partnership with his brother, Chris, says he\u2019s delighted to have a mature-aged apprentice join his team. \u201cTo have an experienced apprentice claiming 3kg in town is going to a big bonus,\u201d Gangemi said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s well known here and has the experience of riding and being familiar with out tracks and set up.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s an experienced jockey who can ride and we\u2019ve kept a close eye him since he was last here.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re rapt to have him come across.<\/p>\n

Louis currently sits on 19 wins for the season and last month represented Tasmania in the National Apprentice Series (NARS) at Strathalbyn in South Australia.<\/p>\n
