Trainer Peter Moody says Typhoon Tracy is forward enough to extend her unbeaten record to six in Saturday's JJ Liston Stakes at Caulfield.

But the Caulfield trainer admitted he was surprised that the brilliant four-year-old mare was favourite for the Group Two weight-for-age 1400m feature.

"Bearing in mind she's taking on what I consider to be the top two four-year-old males (Whobegotyou and Heart Of Dreams), I was surprised and probably a bit staggered that she's come up favourite," Moody said.

"It's her first time out of fillies and mares grade and she's taking on a horse (Whobegotyou) who arguably should have won the Doncaster and a conqueror of his in Heart Of Dreams.

"They are two high-quality horses so if we can be competitive with them we'll be more than pleased.

"Bearing in mind she's only taken on the fillies and mares to date it's a massive class rise tomorrow and it will be a great learning curve for where we head with her for the rest of the spring."

A daughter of Red Ransom, Typhoon Tracy is having her first outing since her brilliant all-the-way victory over Culminate and Gallant Tess in the Group One Coolmore Classic (1500m) for fillies and mares at Rosehill on March 21.

Moody said Typhoon Tracy's ultimate spring goals, "whatever they may be", were still "eight or 10" weeks away, the same as eight Liston rivals who are also resuming.

"She's a pretty athletic type of mare, she's a big, lean mare so she always has that fit appearance about her and she's always been a perfectly-winded horse so she's forward enough to win if she's good enough," Moody said.

"But you want to leave some fuel in the tank."

Typhoon Tracy, Zarita and Gallica are out to become the first mares to win the Liston since Inaflury in 1999 while another mare Vonanne was successful in 1998.

Typhoon Tracy is the $2.35 favourite with TAB Sportsbet ahead of Whobegotyou ($4.80), Heart Of Dreams ($6), Orange County ($7.50), Predatory Pricer at $8 with Gallica best of the rest at $23.

Caulfield and Melbourne Cups prospect Red Lord is at $101 and, although he has drawn the outside barrier, 15, his trainer Anthony Cummings thinks he could figure in the finish.

"He goes well fresh, his work has been very good and I'm expecting him to run a nice race," Cummings said.

"It's a big call to say he can win, but I certainly expect him to be running third or fourth at least."
