Edmonds said he was happy to book Colless who began his riding career in the NSW Northern Rivers.

Edmonds has resisted the temptation to step Tyzone up too far in grade this winter.

There were 30 entries for the Ramornie which has a capacity field of 16 plus four emergencies.

The final field will be decided on Monday.
