SYDNEY, April 13 (UPI) -- Black Caviar won her 25th straight race Saturday, exploding down the straight to take the TJ Smith Stakes at Randwick by 3 lengths.
The undefeated mare overcame an inside post position and slightly giving turf, leaving Epaulette to chase her home in second. Bel Sprinter was third and Black Caviar's oldest and toughest rival, Hay List, struggled home next-last of 11 on the heels of a string of injuries.
Black Caviar, a 7-year-old daughter of Bel Esprit, finished 6 furlongs in 1:09.65 and jockey Luke Nolen was not asking for her best in the final 100 yards when the result was already clear.
Trainer Peter Moody said he and Black Caviar's owners will meet to decide on the mare's schedule, which could include a return trip to Royal Ascot in two months' time.
Saturday's win earned Black Caviar automatic entry and travel expenses for this fall's Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Santa Anita.
