The pair appear ideally suited in the 10 horse field each possessing strong weight-for-age credentials.

Danleigh resumes after a short three start spring campaign which yielded a Group 2 Chelmsford Stakes (1600m) victory.

The nine-year-old has trialled twice in readiness for his first up outing where he will line up against another resuming stablemate, Albert The Fat.

Albert The Fat hasn't been seen since the 2012 Sydney autumn carnival due to a leg injury.

The Magic Albert gelding has trialled three times leading into his first up outing with the latest behind More Joyous at Rosehill earlier this week.

Waller will also saddle up NZ Group 1 winner Tougher Than Ever.

Other notable runners include last start Canterbury BMW Classic winner Skytrain and Team Hawkes-trained Happy Galaxy.
