Jacob Opperman narrowly missed causing a massive upset at Flemington last weekend when he finished second with Country's Light at $101 and will be back in the saddle aboard the horse that provided him with the biggest win in his career in last year's Group 3 Chairman's Stakes at Morphettville.
Royal Mile, who finished fourth behind Belle Plaisir in the Group 3 R A Lee Stakes at Morphettville last time out, will have to overcome a tricky barrier drawn in gate 13 and is marked a $12 chance with tab.com.au behind the Robert Hickmott-trained Degraves who is the $4.80 favourite.
Opperman heads to familiar territory in Victoria's south west at Casterton on Sunday with a busy book of eight rides including the Sue Murphy-trained Farooq in the Apsley Cup.
Morphettville trainer Travis Doudle is also heading over the border with Not Usual Glorious in the $50,000 feature.
