Battle-weary Australian Racehorse of the Year Typhoon Tracy has been retired.

The curtain came down on her stellar career with trainer Peter Moody declaring that the champion mare had nothing more to prove after her gut-busting sixth Group One win in last Saturday's CF Orr Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield.

Typhoon Tracy joined other champions Vo Rogue, Manikato and Lord as the only multiple Orr Stakes winners after also winning the race last year.

On Saturday her owners were ecstatic as they cheered Typhoon Tracy back to scale, unaware of how much the effort had sapped her.

"She gave her absolute all in that race and is still fatigued 72 hours after the run," Moody said on Tuesday.

He said the five-year-old was sound and injury-free but the time had come for her to retire after winning 11 of her 20 starts and being placed on another five occasions for career earnings of $2,438,600.

"We could have freshened her up for a tilt at the Brisbane winter carnival, but she's achieved great things already so we've decided to retire her," Moody said.

"She's been amazing to me and I'll be forever grateful for the success she gave me and her owners."

The daughter of Red Ransom and Tracy's Element raced at Listed or Group level all but twice in her career.

Her first Group One success was the 2009 Coolmore Classic (1500m) at Rosehill.

She was crowned 2010 Australian Racehorse of the Year for last season's Group One wins in the 2009 Myer Classic (1600m) at Flemington, the 2010 Orr Stakes and 2010 Futurity Stakes (1600m) at Caulfield and the 2010 Queen Of The Turf Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill.

After winning last Saturday's Orr Stakes, Moody revealed that he regretted not running Typhoon Tracy in last year's Cox Plate.

Typhoon Tracy was winless last spring and Moody abandoned Cox Plate plans after she finished fifth to Zipping in the Group One Turnbull Stakes (2000m) at Flemington.

"I really regret her not running in the Cox Plate. That's one of my biggest regrets in racing not giving her that chance," Moody said.
