Cambridge trainers Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman could have as many as five three-year-olds aimed at Sydney staying features in the coming weeks.
Gr.1 New Zealand Derby (2400m) winner Vin De Dance is heading to Sydney with stablemates Mission Hill and Mongolian Marshal, Baker has confirmed.
Weather With You is already in Sydney and will contest a 1600m Rating 75 race at Warwick Farm next Wednesday, with Kerrin McEvoy booked to ride, as a possible lead-up to the Gr.1 Rosehill Guineas (2000m) on March 24.
Gundown could yet join the travelling party, should he win the last race at Ellerslie on Saturday.
"Vin De Dance will run in the Rosehill Guineas and we'll decide with the others whether they run in the same race or wait a week and run in the Tulloch Stakes," Baker said.
The Gr.2 Tulloch Stakes (2000m) is run at Rosehill on March 31 and is a race Baker has won four times previously with (Our) Palliser (1987), The Bill (1993), Harris Tweed (2009) and Jon Snow last year.
