Devise has been put aside with connections already eyeing next season’s Group One carnival at Hastings.

“She’s having a break and we know she goes well at Hawke’s Bay so she’ll likely chase the Triple Crown series there,” trainer Shaune Ritchie said.

The Darci Brahma mare won the Gr.1 Haunui Farm WFA Classic (1600m) last month before she was unplaced in the Gr.1 Australian Cup (2000m) at Flemington where she suffered a minor fetlock injury.

Stablemate and Listed New Zealand St Leger (2500m) winner Daytona Red has also headed to the spelling paddock.

“There’s nothing really suitable for him so he’ll have a spell and then we’ll get him ready for next season,” Ritchie said. “He’s come a long way, he was still a maiden at the start of the summer.”
