What about staging it at the Brisbane winter carnival? What about a race like the Doomben 10,000? The banter has commenced. Talk of a showdown is gaining momentum. Will it happen?

Black Caviar's media-friendly trainer, Peter Moody, has already been sounded out by More Joyous's owner-breeder, John Singleton, about a match race. Moody's quip to the larger-than-life ''Singo'' was short.

''Come and see me when you've got one good enough,'' Moody replied. You've got to like the cheek of it all. Moody has been around stables long enough to know Singo's mare is one right out of that box, while his own brute borders on the freakish.

Black Caviar has run her rivals ragged to be unbeaten in 10 starts. She entered the group 1 league three starts ago, winning her first at the elite level by four lengths and her past two by a combined 6.3 lengths.

Each has been breathtaking. The ease, the arrogance, of it all. She is going faster than her rivals when her navigator Luke Nolen is easing her down well short of the winning post.

Little wonder Moody and Nolen were again seen signing photos of their money-making machine. They did it at Flemington a couple of weeks ago when Black Caviar thrashed them in the Newmarket Handicap when making light of weight carrying records.

Moody and Nolen were at it again at Rosehill last Saturday, when More Joyous saved punters keen on taking odds-on from a near-fatal flogging. In the first three races, Flying Empress and Sepoy started in the red, while Satin Shoes was sent out at even money, but they all were beaten.

After this horror start, along came More Joyous. A firmer at $1.30, More Joyous took her record to 13 wins from 17 starts. She has now won nine straight in Sydney but nothing in the manner of Saturday's Canterbury Stakes romp. What Black Caviar can do, I can do … ''She goes faster in a track gallop on Tuesday,'' jockey Nash Rawiller said.

He, like Nolen, surely knows what it is like to be a passenger on a juggernaut. More Joyous has won four group 1s. Like Black Caviar, she has won three this season.

Black Caviar will surely collect another one on Friday night at Moonee Valley in the William Reid Stakes.

More Joyous will have to wait another week for the Queen Of The Turf Stakes at Rosehill on Golden Slipper day when she will get to take the sword to own sex over 1500 metres.

They both then head to Randwick. Black Caviar will run in the TJ Smith over 1200m at weight-for-age on April 9. A week later More Joyous faces a rather tougher ask in the Doncaster Mile with 56.5 kilograms on her back.

What then for More Joyous? What about a trip north. Black Caviar is heading there for the BTC Cup on May 14 and the Doomben 10,000 a fortnight later.

She'll be asked to compete beyond 1200m for the first time in her life. The 10,000 is at weight for age over a soft 1350m. Plenty of time for More Joyous to be freshened up after the Doncaster. Why not have a crack?

Singo might already have that horse Moody was talking about. Let's bring it on.
