Trainer Bjorn Baker sees Saturday's Group 1 $1m Champagne Stakes (1600m) as a risk worth taking with gun filly Within The Law. Baker is hoping to make it three consecutive Group 1-winning weekend's with Belclare also contesting the Group 1 $1.5m All Aged Stakes (1400m) for the trainer. He has taken an unconventional approach to getting Within The Law to her second Group 1 attempt this campaign at Royal Randwick.

Trainer Gary Portelli is confident Kimochi is going well enough to win Saturday's Group 1 $1.5 million All Aged Stakes (1400m) but concedes she may need a "Nash Rawiller special" at Royal Randwick. Rawiller has pulled off some unforgettable riding performances over the years at Sydney's Autumn Carnival and could get the another opportunity to deliver another in this week's main event.

Emerging sprinter General Salute can enhance his credentials for a Group 1 interstate raid when he hunts a winning hat-trick in Saturday's Group 3 $250,000 Hall Mark Stakes (1200m) at Royal Randwick. Trainers Gerald Ryan and Sterling Alexiou have a potential Stradbroke Handicap tilt on their radar for their in-form four-year-old, who will attempt to maintain his perfect record this preparation on the final day of Sydney's autumn carnival.
