When I Wish I Win and Chain Of Lightning line-up in the Doomben 10,000, co-trainer Peter Moody and the owners of the two Group 1 stars, the Chitticks and the Ramseys, will be on the other side of the Tasman Sea.
Peter Moody can't remember the last time he had a Group 1 winner in Queensland, the state where he was born and began his illustrious training career.
He remembers Black Caviar taking the 2011 BTC Cup (now the Kingsford Smith Stakes) defeating her regular rival Hay List in great style but prod him on the topic of more recent successes and he displays a delightful vagueness.
Like so many successful people in all walks of life, he is more consumed by the hopes and dreams of the present and the future than reminiscences about the past.
