Caviar retains horse of the year crown

Updated September 16, 2012 21:57:52

Black Caviar has been named Australian Horse of the Year for a second straight year at an awards ceremony in Melbourne.

The world champion sprinter raced nine times for as many wins during the 2011-12 season for a total of $3.3 million in prize money.

She saluted six times at Group One level, culminating in her Diamond Jubilee triumph at Royal Ascot in June.

"She's done some extraordinary things this year," co-owner Colin Madden said.

"She's entertained and brought together racing and she's entertained the Queen.

Horse of the Year: Black Caviar
Champion three-year-old (male): Sepoy
Champion three-year-old (female): Atlantic Jewel
Champion two-year-old: Pierro
Champion sprinter: Black Caviar
Champion middle distance horse: More Joyous
Champion stayer: Dunaden
Champion Group One jockey: Nash Rawiller (11)
Champion Group One trainer: Peter Moody (10)
Champion jumper: Bashboy
Champion sire: Fastnet Rock

"We're very lucky to have this horse and our thanks go to Peter Moody and to Luke Nolen."

Black Caviar's trip to England took its toll and the great mare will not race again this year.

Her owners and Moody will decide later this month whether she will be prepared for an autumn campaign or be retired.

"She looks the best she's looked for years and the reports from everyone who sees her say that she's looking a million dollars," said co-owner Neil Werrett.

"It's just up to Team Moody to give us a recommendation and whatever Peter and his team recommend we'll go by."

It is the sixth time in eight seasons that a mare has been named horse of the year, and Black Caviar joins Makybe Diva, Sunline and Might And Power as multiple winners of the award.

Black Caviar was also crowned champion sprinter, while More Joyous was named champion middle distance horse on the back of her stellar autumn.

As expected, Golden Slipper winner Pierro was named champion two-year-old, but in the hottest category of the night, Atlantic Jewel was named champion three-year-old filly.

It was a bittersweet win for Atlantic Jewel's connections with the undefeated mare out for the spring through injury.

Melbourne Cup winner Dunaden was champion stayer.
