BRISBANE - Champion mare Black Caviar has frightened off trainer Gillian Heinrich, who has aborted plans to run last year's Magic Millions Classic winner Military Rose in next month's TJ Smith Stakes at Randwick.
Heinrich has now decided on a shorter Sydney campaign with the 3-year-old filly who shone in an easy 1010m barrier trial win at the Gold Coast yesterday.
The daughter of General Nediym was ridden by Glen Colless when she easily won an open trial on a heavy track. "I also had her entered for a barrier trial at Eagle Farm today but I decided to run her here even though it was a heavy track," Heinrich said.
"I wanted to run her in the TJ Smith but there's no point now with Black Caviar heading that way.
"She'll be flown to Sydney tomorrow night and I'll run her in the Darby Munro and then the Gosford Guineas before she comes home for the Gold Coast Guineas."
