Peter Moody's first taste of Group 1 succes came in November 2001 when his Carnegie colt
Amalfi owned by Ron & Judy Wanless took out the VRC Derby, this win helped establish Peter in Victoria where he had set up a small satellite stable, in 2003 after continued success Peter closed his Queensland operation to concentrate on his expanding Caulfield base.
Growing up in Charleville in Country Queensland and having worked for legendary trainers T.J. Smith & Colin Hayes , Peter went on to be foreman for Bill Mitchell for 10 years before applying and being granted a number one trainers license.
2003 not only brought the move to the new Caulfield base it also brought the next Group 1 success which came with sprinting mare
Ancient Song, purchased by Laurel Oak Bloodstock and long time client Stuart Ramsey the mare in just her 3rd start for the stable took out the Salinger Stakes on Derby Day. Stuart Ramsey's committment to the stable was again rewarded in 2004 when
Sky Cuddle took out the Group 1 Emirates Stakes on the last day of the Flemington Carnival.
Further Group 1 success has followed with
Testafiable taking out the 2006 S.A. Derby, and the win of
Magnus in the 2007 A.J.C The Galaxy after placing's in both the Group 1 Lightning Stakes and Oakleigh Plate it was a well deserved win for owner and breeder Robert Crabtree and partners, and also in 2007 was the very special victory of
Cinque Cento in the Doomben Cup again for long time friends and clients Stuart and Trish Ramsey and family. This year, 2008, saw our first multiple Group 1 winner in the form of the super tough
Riva San, in the space of a week this filly took out the Group 1 QTC Oaks & QTC Derby.
