The weekend's seven-race meeting will include a Country Championships preview, that features two Thompson Racing acceptances - Amy's Shadow and Slatey Bay.

Up against the heavily contested 10 slot field, the Gulgong-based runners are in with a shot despite some time away.

Amy's Shadow's last run saw her place second on January 28 in the Open Trial (900 metres) at Scone after running sixth in her last start at Rosehill Gardens before being let up for 12 weeks.

The four-year-old mare has also been accepted in the Daily Liberal Benchmark 66 Handicap (1100 metres), leaving Thompson Racing with a decision to make.

Meanwhile, five-year-old Slatey Bay looks to make his return after contesting in two separate trials last month.

Former Mudgee-based trainer, Gayna Williams, now of Bathurst, will have Redirect lining up from barrier two with Nick Heywood in the saddle.

Meanwhile, Kylie Kennedy of Narromine has a pair from her stable in the running - Pamela and Wild Rocket.

As for the rest of the day, Thompson's One More Poet will run from gate 15 in the Ezyquip Hire Benchmark 58 Handicap (1300 metres) which will jump at 4.30pm.

The gates for the first race of the day will open at 1.25pm, while the Country Championships Preview will jump at 3.10pm.
