BOOM filly Black Caviar has a torn chest muscle that threatens her spring campaign.
Trainer Peter Moody said yesterday the injury would require a minimum seven days' rest. A decision will then be made on Black Caviar's future.
He said the filly was in pain and her chest was swollen.
"She's done it before. She's very fit, so we will bite the bullet, rest and hope it heals," Moody said. "We will give her as long as it takes. If it doesn't heal quickly she'll be out for the spring."
Black Caviar injured herself when she jumped awkwardly at the start of Saturday's Group 2 Danehill Stakes (1200m) at Flemington.
