Rollalong Jane has drawn the outside of the second line in a tough race that includes three last start winners in the Katie Jenner trained Lettuceroll, Camstar Road (Brooke McPherson) and Alice on the Beach (Todd Prest).
An out of form Holy Camp Capryse lines up in the day's first looking for a return to the form which saw him successful at Young on June 29 while the promising Inspector Callahan steps out second up from a spell in the seventh event.
First start back this time in the promising two-year-old was a game second at the Riverina Paceway on August 27 behind Inverloch Dreaming.
A repeat of that effort would see the son of Warrawee Needy in the finish.
Young came up empty handed at the Riverina meeting last Friday where Mister Rea made it five victories from as many starts as the group one winner returned in impressive style.
Untrailled since taking out the Bathurst Gold Crown in March, Mister Rea eased away from his older rivals clocking a last quarter of 26.8 seconds on his way to a 11.1-metre victory.
Winning reinsman Daryll Perrot was thrilled with his efforts.
"It was the hit out we wanted," Perrot said.
"He's like no other horse I've driven as he's just got gears and manners.
"I had to wake him up down the back and pulled the plugs to say let's do something, but his attitude is just fantastic."
Mister Rea wasn't bustled out early by Perrot from barrier five but was able to find the front and dictate terms from there.
He clocked a mile rate of 1:55.5.
Perrot is excited for what lies ahead.
"He was never off the bit and just has an unbelievable cruising speed but the fun is to come," he said.
"Hopefully COVID works out, everyone gets vaccinated and we can do something and go somewhere as there is some fun in this horse don't worry about that."
Temora trainer Ray Walker is now looking to head to the heats of the NSW Breeders Challenge with his stable star.
He's eyeing off Young's heat on September 14 leaving Inverloch Dreaming for Wagga's heat later in the month.
Walker is hoping a winning return is just the start of another big campaign.
"I'm pleased it is done and he's gone good so I'm really happy now," Walker said.
"There is always an element of doubt as things can go wrong.
"I'm just glad he did everything right, is in one piece and we can just keep on going."
Mister Rea clocked a mile rate of 1:52.1 to set the standard for two-year-olds this season before taking out Bathurst's feature race.
Walker is looking forward to seeing how Mister Rea stacks up.
"He's the real deal but it just depends on how many good horses there are as those ones of Jarrod's are going pretty good," he said.
"There has been a couple of others start lately who go ok in Sydney so it will be good fun when we all meet."
