Coolmore's Australian Group 1 winner Personal will be shipped to the U.S. this week to join trainer Chad Brown's stable in New York for a possible run at the Nov. 6 Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Del Mar. 

Racing.com reported Personal, who won the VRC Oaks (G1) and was second in last month's Australasia Oaks (G1), will fly to New York on Wednesday and spend two days in quarantine before joining Brown's shedrow. Last season, Fastnet Rock filly also won the Blue Diamond Stakes (G1) and placed in the Thousand Guineas (G1).

"The fillies and mares' Breeders' Cup would be the ultimate goal, but of course she has to travel and show her form in lead-up races," Rob Archibald, Coolmore racing manager, told Racing.com.

Brown has won 15 Breeders' Cup races, including four runnings of the Filly & Mare Turf.
