She will be okay
Looks like will she recover just fine.
The question is whether, or not, they race her again in Australia.
Here's the latest quote from trainer:
Moody himself feels the injury is only minor and believes Black Caviar will return to the racetrack in her homeland.
"She is very tender up in her hind-quarters but it is restricted to soft tissue damage," he told The Telegraph.
"We gave her precautionary X-rays and had her scanned and the vets said everything looked OK on that front, but the chiropractor said that she is quite sore and tender behind.
"They are all injuries she has sustained before, so it is not unusual.
"She has torn her quad muscle before and it will not be the finish of her.
"She is very flat (on Sunday morning) and will now have a couple of weeks' rest.
"It is the tightest I have seen her after a race, though she has never travelled this far before.
"Hopefully, we will have her back for the spring carnival where the Patinack Farm Classic, the race she has won for last two years, will be the target."
