Katherine Coleman is already thinking ahead after winning with Hennessy Lad at Moonee Valley. She is working with renowned trainer Peter Moody and is on track for her Group One debut, thanks to her star runner, I Wish I Win, who won the TJ Smith Stakes.
Jockey Luke Nolen will guide I Wish I Win through the 1400-metre Gr.1 Memsie Stakes, paving the way for their ultimate goal of conquering The Everest in Sydney.
Setting The Pace: Katherine Coleman’s Vision For Future Success
The decision to use the Memsie Stakes as a lead-up race may not be conventional, but there are reasons behind it. With no suitable preparatory races on the schedule, trainers Coleman and Moody have opted for a three-week break between competitions to ensure their horse, I Wish I Win, is in optimal form.
The ultimate goal is the Everest, and both trainers are focused on maintaining the horse's well-being in the weeks ahead. Coleman sees untapped potential in I Wish I Win, who is known for his versatility over different distances. Meanwhile, Moody is currently in New Zealand, discussing I Wish I Win's progress with his part-owners and breeders, the Chittick family.
