The Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained Sir Delius’ preparation may not be over yet!

After going winless across four races in this year’s Spring Racing Carnival, the five-year-old stallion will likely be heading overseas to Hong Kong.

On SENTrack & RSN’s Giddy Up, Bott confirmed that the son of Frankel has come through his Champions Stakes run well and will have another trial before his likely international tilt.

“He seemed a lot more focused and a lot more switched on (for the Champions Stakes). He really put in there, so encouraging to see, I think he's certainly back on track for us,” Bott said.

“He's arrived up in Sydney. He looks to be in good shape at this stage, preparing him towards a race in Hong Kong.

“He'll have another trial later this month and if he continues to tick all the boxes, that's something that's firmly on the radar for him.

“That's sort of always been on the cards for him, and off that last run, it certainly didn't deter us… He seems in great order!”
