The New Zealand-bred mare Risque has been tipped to enjoy a lucrative autumn campaign.
The daughter of Darci Brahma won the Gr.3 Kevin Hayes Stakes in her Australian debut, but she subsequently suffered a setback during the Sydney autumn carnival.
"She had a bone chip taken out of her ankle following her last run in Sydney," co-trainer David Hayes said. "She's back in work and will be ready to race in February.
"We'll probably kick her off in mares grade, but I think she'll end up in open company without too much trouble, I've always thought she was up to Group One level."
After winning the Gr.1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas in 2015, Risque was purchased by Australian interests.
