After securing a victory in Saturday’s Group 1 Australian Oaks (2400m), Autumn Angel could be poised for further elite-level success, with considerations for either the Group 1 Queensland Derby (2400m) on June 1 or the Group 1 Queensland Oaks (2400m) on June 8.

The talented filly, trained by Peter Moody and Katherine Coleman, is currently enjoying a spell in Queensland.

Managing owner Wylie Dalziel disclosed that the decision to extend her season is under deliberation.

“At this stage, she’s having a spell in Queensland,” Dalziel informed Racing.com. “Moods will go up and see her next week and then he will make a decision as to whether to bring her back in for those races.”

Reflecting on the significance of Autumn Angel’s triumph, Dalziel shared, “There were quite a few of the owners in Autumn Angel who have raced horses for 40 years and have not had a Group 1 winner. They were thrilled.”
