The connections of Hiflyer are mulling over their options.

“He’s had a month’s work, three weeks on the water walker and a week with us,” trainer Peter Lock said. “I’m over the moon with him, he looks great.

“He’s twice as big and strong now and ticking over well. We’ll get him fit and ready and then decide whether we go to Brisbane or Sydney or stay home.

“He’ll be telling us what we do. He could even go back to the spelling paddock and then get him ready for the Triple Crown at Hastings.”

Hiflyer is a dual Group Three winner and hasn’t raced since he ran third in the Gr.1 Thorndon Mile (1600m) at Trentham in January.
