Talented mare Coeur Volante (NZ) (Proisir) will jump from barrier one in her bid to deliver Ballymore Stables an emotional Group 1 victory on Saturday.
Coeur Volante will travel to Sydney for the Coolmore Classic (1500m) at Rosehill following her dominant last-start win in the G3 Mannerism Stakes at Caulfield.
That victory was trainer Mike Moroney’s final city triumph before his shock passing just days later.
Training partner Glen Thompson and racing manager Anthony Feroce have continued the training operation since Moroney’s death and a victory on Saturday would be a highly emotional one for the stable.
Lindsay Park will saddle up Marble Arch (NZ) (Per Incanto) in the race, while Danny O’Brien has sent Grinzinger Belle up to Sydney to compete in the $1 million feature.
Leading Victorian jockey Blake Shinn will also ride at the meeting and will partner Alsephina in the race.
