A decision on who trains the first foal of Black Caviar is set to be made in the coming fortnight, with the champion galloper's co-owner Neil Werrett confirming Oscietra will be trained in Victoria.

The Exceed And Excel filly, now two, has been in pre-training, and Werrett said there is potential fans will see the first progeny of the unbeaten mare at the track in 2016.

"We now have to, in the next two weeks, appoint a trainer," Werrett told Racing.com's Racing Ahead on RSN 927.

"She's been doing pre-training.

"It'll be a Victorian-based trainer; she'll be trained there - as will the [Sebring] colt.

"She could [race this year].

"She's about 16 hands. The whole progeny take a while to mature.

"We've definitely been looking after her to make sure she's educated well.

"She's put on 40kg in the last four months, and most of what she's put on is all muscle.

"I think whoever gets her will be happy to have her in the stable."

She now has 3 foals. I am calling bulldust on 1 racing in 2016. It's September and it doesn't have a trainer and we are expected to believe it will be racing soon??

This girl hardly needs to perform, given her ancestry, so they'll probably give her a decent try. 

Werret has a few with Waller, so my guess is CJW

I think Tom Dab will get her but would love to see her go to Moody

Will have her first jump out at Flemington on Friday December 2
David Hayes very happy with how she is going at home and she may race around Christmas time

Looked a bit rehearsed to my eyes.

Hahahhahahahaha yes well......lol

Looked alright to me. Has a maiden in her. Will probably be a late 3yo anyway

Similar action on her but looks about 1/4 size of her ma

She is TINY! In the video on racing.com the other day she is in a 4'9 rug, so she would be all of about 14hh I reckon!! An average 2yo is usually wearing rugs of 5'9-6'3

An average 2yo is usually wearing rugs of 5'9-6'3 4''9 New Zealand = 6''3 Australian, I would say it's a NZ rug.

Would hope so!! It was a canvas unlined combo. So possible.

Would Winx have beaten Oscietra in the jump out?

Should make for a nice afternoon of debate .

There are already pages of Winks threads

They would have hired a marquee, offshore press, issued 40 press releases and have had make up and stylists on call.
