AUSTRALIA'S highest-rated mare Typhoon Tracy could get the chance to become one of the world's best female racehorses with a number of international races in 2010 under consideration, reports The Age.
It says: The four-year-old dual group 1 winner kicks off her first campaign this year on Saturday in the group 1 Orr Stakes at Caulfield, alongside Melbourne Cup winner Shocking, but her trainer Peter Moody said yesterday from New Zealand that by year's end she may well have taken on the world.
Moody, who was inspecting yearlings on the eve of the Karaka sales beginning today, said he has Typhoon Tracy entered for races in Dubai and Hong Kong in the coming months and is also considering taking her to England this winter if her form warrants it.
''The Dubai race [Duty Free] is over 1800 metres so that's probably unlikely as I want to keep her to 1600 metres, but the Hong Kong race [Champions Mile in April] will come under consideration as will a trip to England, but those decisions are a while off yet,'' he said. ''I'd like to see her return with a win on Saturday and then repeat the dose in the Futurity [Stakes on February 27] and we'll take it from there.''
