BLACK Caviar won't be racing for another three weeks, but the Peter Moody juggernaut rolls on unabated into Saturday's triple group 1 meeting at Caulfield with his sights set on dominating Melbourne's big sprint races, reports The Age (www.theage.com.au)
Moody has targeted all four group 1 sprints and, with Black Caviar almost certain to take three of them, Moody is depending on one of his other five high-class sprinters snaring Saturday's Oakleigh Plate.
The trainer said yesterday he was likely to run new stable acquisition Hinchinbrook as well as filly Panipique, mares Avenue and Set For Fame and 2009 Blue Diamond Stakes winner Reward For Effort in the 1100-metre dash. He said Hinchinbrook, a star juvenile when trained by Gerald Ryan, had enjoyed a solid preparation for his return. ''He does look to be very smart and I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do,'' Moody said, while mare Set For Fame ''goes very well fresh and is raring to go''.
Moody said he was likely to have two Blue Diamond Stakes runners, fillies Hallowell Belle and Metonymy.
''At this stage I think we'll go in with the two girls,'' he said. ''I have the option of paying up a late entry for Golden Archer tomorrow but the two fillies are probably leading the charge at this stage.
''Hallowell Belle is inexperienced and still green but she's shown she has the ability to go well at this level and Metonymy is a tradesman-like filly who puts herself into the race and so - if she draws well - she should run well.''
