Peter Moody has elected to spell his gun sprinter I Wish I Win and is already planning an attack on the autumn sprint riches.
I Wish I Win took his earnings above $10 million with his second placing behind Think About It in The Everest last week.
But while Moody said it had been a great effort to win that prizemoney in 12 months, with the riches on offer he plans on following a similar program next year.
I Wish I Win had a two-start spring campaign which consisted of a third placing in the Memise Stakes and The Everest run.
“I would say I’d give him a longer spell and then bring him back for the Black Caviar Lightning, the William Reid in Melbourne and then the T.J. Smith and the Doomben 10,000,” Moody said.
In a three-start autumn campaign, I Wish I Win ran second in the Black Caviar Lightning and third in the Newmarket Handicap before winning the T.J. Smith Stakes.
“As ‘Trumby’ (Luke Nolen) said after the Everest, we could be running in this race for the next four years,” said Moody, who hasn’t completely ruled out a shorter spell and a return in time for the C.F. Orr Stakes.
“There’s nothing wrong with him but I think I’m leaning to giving him a longer spell.”
