High class mare Lady Lynette could get another shot at joining the Group One winner's list if she performs at Scone.
A Group One assignment is on the cards for Lady Lynette if she can run up to expectations at her first start for her new stable at Scone on Saturday.
The $1 million earner was bought by Gerry Harvey as a broodmare proposition last month and has returned to training under the care of the new training partnership of Lee Freedman and Graeme Rogerson at Randwick.
The seven-year-old kicks off a new phase of her career in the $200,000 Dark Jewel Classic (1400m) with the steadier of 60kg and from the outside barrier in a field of 14.
"She's going very well but she's got her work cut out now with the 60 kilos and the wide gate," Freedman said.
"Having said that I think she's going very, very well so she should run very well up there."
Lady Lynette will be lining up for her 50th start having won on 14 occasions including eight times at stakes level.
The former Tasmanian-based mare was retired after her most recent start when she was first past the post but relegated to second on protest in the Group Two Sunline Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley in March.
She then went through the sale ring at the Easter Broodmare Sale in Sydney.
"Gerry Harvey bought her at the broodmare sale and decided to put her back into training," Freedman said.
Freedman had seen plenty of Lady Lynette during his time training in Melbourne.
"She's very consistent. Always races at the top level and generally is always in the money," he said, adding that a Brisbane campaign is being considered.
"If she runs up to expectations on Saturday we'll probably take her up to Brisbane for the Dane Ripper (Stakes) and the (Group One) Winter Stakes (Tatt's Tiara)."
Freedman and Rogerson will be having their first stakes runners as a partnership on Saturday with Lady Lynette and Dowager Queen, who runs in the Group Three Roses (2000m) at Doomben.
The union became official with Racing NSW last week.
Dowager Queen has placed three times at Group One level, including her second to Mosheen in last year's VRC Oaks (2500m) when she was nine lengths adrift of the runaway winner.
"She's certainly of the right quality to run very well in that race up there," Freedman said of Dowager Queen.
