<p class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description"> Record-breaking Australian mare Black Caviar had extra help for a 30-hour flight to Britain for Royal Ascot.
</p>
<p> The unbeaten 21-time winner arrived in the UK wearing a body compression suit, similar to those used by athletes, to aid blood movement during her trip.
</p>
<p> Trainer Peter Moody said the suit was recommended by Australia&#039;s Olympic 110m hurdle gold medal hope Sally Pearson.
</p>
<p> &quot;I thought if it&#039;s good enough for Sally Pearson, it&#039;s good enough for Black Caviar,&quot; Moody said.

<p id="story_continues_2"> Moody got the idea for the wetsuit-style aid from a rival trainer John McNair, who used it on his top sprinter Hay List.
</p>
<p> &quot;It&#039;s a compression suit that helps generate blood flow. We all get a bit weary when we are travelling, and she is going to be no different,&quot; said Moody, who is based at Caulfield, near Melbourne, in Victoria.
</p>
<p> &quot;When we are travelling we have got the option of getting up and going for a walk. She&#039;s going to be standing in her horse box for 30-odd hours, so she&#039;s not going to have that opportunity to exercise.
</p>
<p> &quot;Anything that can aid her in the travel we are throwing at her. On taking advice from a vet and a chiropractor and knowing that Black Caviar has always been susceptible to soft tissue injuries, muscle tears and the like, we thought it might aid her.
</p>
<p> &quot;We&#039;ve had it on her here at home for a couple of weeks and she&#039;s got well and truly used to it.&quot;
</p>
<p> The suits, made of a revolutionary moisture-management fabric and fitted with zippers, are manufactured by Sydney firm Hidez. The compression is said to help circulation and supply more oxygen to muscles.

<p id="story_continues_3"> Black Caviar has become a household name in Australia with her record sequence of victories.
</p>
<p> The five-year-old mare, nicknamed Nelly, will race outside her home country for the first time when running in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Ascot on 23 June.
</p>
<p> Stable vet Peter Angus and assistant trainer Tony Hatdon were by the horse&#039;s side throughout the flight, which included stopovers in Singapore and Sharjah.
</p>
<p> Moody said his sprinter, who is odds-on favourite to win at Ascot and will be stabled in Newmarket, had never been in better shape ahead of Wednesday&#039;s flight.
</p>
<p> &quot;She paraded today the fittest that she&#039;s ever been in her life and I&#039;ve purposely done that. I don&#039;t want to have to do much with her when she gets there (England) I want her in peak condition,&quot; said the trainer.
</p>
<div class="story-feature wide ">

<h2>Nelly&#039;s racing pedigree</h2>
<!-- pullout-items-->
<!-- pullout-body-->
<p> Black Caviar has won her races by a combined total of more than 68 lengths
</p>
<!-- pullout-links-->
</div>
</div>
<p id="story_continues_4"> &quot;Facts and figures tell you there is not a horse out there that can beat her. Fingers crossed if nothing goes wrong, she wins.&quot;
</p>
<p> To mark Black Caviar&#039;s Ascot run, a giant screen will show the race at 00:45 local time in Federation Square, Melbourne.
</p>
<p> &quot;Black Caviar has captured our imagination as one of Australia&#039;s greatest racing sensations. In her distinctive salmon and black silks, I have no doubt she&#039;ll be a sensation on the track at Royal Ascot,&quot; said Dennis Napthine, Victorian Minister for Racing.
</p>
<p> &quot;We are hoping many Victorians and visitors to Melbourne will come together to share this moment in racing history live.&quot;
