A 'raid' on the UK is very much on the agenda. Moody says: 'Everything is geared towards Royal Ascot in June and she will need to have at least one run or a barrier trial before she leaves because you need to go to England race fit...There is no point going over there to get fit, you need to get on the plane ready to race...Whether that means she runs in Sydney, in Melbourne or Adelaide, I'm not sure. We will get through the Futurity Stakes and then decide what is the best plan.'
