A quality field of eight will contest the Expressway Stakes (1200m) at Rosehill following the early scratching of Southern Lad, who will instead tackle a support race.
The Group Two sprint will feature the return of Caulfield Guineas and Golden Rose winner Ole Kirk, who has drawn the inside, and classy Godolphin mare Savatiano, who has gate two.
The pair were equal $3.60 favourite with TAB fixed odds on Wednesday.
