Since returning to the track Zoolander has notched up two wins and two second placing's, from just six outings.

“Hopefully he will lead. If he can he will certainly give the opposition something to chase.”

Others in contention in an open race are Born Princess and Our Abby.

Born Princess for Warrnambool trainer Noel Mugavin has won four of her last five starts, and was an impressive winner at last night.

Born Princess also likes to lead in her races and will jump from inside Zoolander in Box 3.

Her Box 7 draw should not affect her chances in the race as she has already won from an outside box draw.
