I had a John Deere 350g digging it and it had problems sinking. But man was it sure fun playing on that big toy!

Dozer. JD850, D65 Kamatsu, International TD15, Cat D7, etc. Something in the 150-200HP range with 8 ft blade
Track loaders almost always have street pads. Moving this much dirt that far you need pads with cleats.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

The dozier would be good to spread it with but a loader with a good size bucket would be better to move it with
Let them walk ...and grow them big

If you're gonna scoop and go with it, not much difference although he did say it was soft in the area where the dirt is. But, in all my years of moving dirt with loaders and dozers I have always been able to push more efficiently with a large dozer vs scoop and haul with a loader.. Possibly because the dozer on site was always a lot bigger than any loader on site.

The track loaders that I have seen also have more narrow tracks on them than dozers do. Narrow tracks equals a stuck machine much of the time.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

Getting a big piece of equipment out of a stuck perdicament is a nightmare I wouldn't wish on anyone.
