“I was happy with his trial when he ran second to and the only thing about Saturday is the barrier is .

“Brett used to ride for me quite a bit when he was in Melbourne before he went to Hong Kong and I’m happy to be able to put him on.”

Since Legend of Condor ran 2-1/2 lengths sixth in won by Sandbar on August 11, he has had a 1000m-trial at on August 30.

Prebble will also ride the Ryan-trained in a benchmark race and has also been booked for Group Two rides on the Tim Martin-trained Danawi in the Stan Fox Stakes and the Kris Lees-trained Zestful in the Sheraco.

Ryan has triple Group One winner returning in the Theo Marks but is also looking for a big showing from in the Sheraco.

“She has run third and fourth in this race for the past two years so I’m hoping she can go well again,” he said.

The Sheraco will be Magic Alibi’s first start since her win in the Listed Classic (1200m) at Ipswich on June 16.
