Sydney Jockey Christian Reith has picked up the ride on Chance To Dance in Saturday's rerun of the $A2 million Gr.1 Sydney Cup.
The stayer will make his first appearance at Randwick for trainers Stephen Autridge and Jamie Richards and Fortuna NZ.
"We had engaged Jason Collett to ride once Damian Lane had declared himself unavailable," Fortuna principal John Galvin said.
"Then Jason was suspended and we were left trying to chase down another lightweight rider. Christian answered the call and we are happy to have him aboard.
"He rode Chance To Dance in a 1200 metre gallop at Randwick on Tuesday morning, running good time and never off the bridle, according to his rider."
