Gollan will use jump-outs at on to tone Zoustyle, , and .

Garibaldi and Niedorp will then head to the two divisions of the three-year-old handicap at Eagle Farm on Saturday.

“There are divisions for the boys and the girls over 1000 metres which are ideal at this stage of their campaigns,” Gollan said.

While there is speculation Zoustyle is chasing a spot in The , Gollan is keeping a lid on any discussion until after the Concorde.

“It will be a top-class field and give us an idea of where we stand,” he said.

“Of course everyone would like a spot in The Everest but there are a lot of races to suit Zoustyle in the spring.”
