Goldikova could end her career at Hong Kong this season, with the Hong Kong Mile under consideration for the superstar mare who will also be bidding for an unprecedented fourth successive victory in the Breeders' Cup Mile.

Trained by Freddie Head, the six-year-old created history when winning the race for the third year running at Churchill Downs last September, and Head mapped out a similar schedule to last year with the addition ofa possible trip to Sha Tin.

Speaking at Meydan, he said:  "She's as well as she's ever been after having a spell at her owner's farm in Normandy.

"She's a six-year-old and is mature - but she's not an old lady yet.

"We will try and run in the same races as last year, starting off in the Prix d'Ispahan and then the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot.  

One of the big plans is the Jacques le Marois again and the Breeders' Cup. "
