Premier jockey Nash Rawiller kicked off his 2011/12 Sydney campaign with a victory during the week and will be out to dominate Sydney's first stakes races of the new season on Saturday.

Rawiller rides favourite Queenian in the Listed Rosebud Quality (1200m) and second favourite Squamosa in the Group Three Missile Stakes (1200m) at Randwick.

Queenian heads into The Rosebud with five weeks between runs after scoring a deserved 5-1/4-length victory at Rosehill on July 2.

Squamosa, on the other hand, blotted his copybook with an out-of-character performance when he flopped as $1.30 favourite in the Listed Takeover Target Stakes (1200m) at Gosford on June 24.

That failure came just 13 days after he streeted his rivals by almost five lengths in an explosive comeback performance in the Listed June Stakes (1100m) at Randwick.

He is on the second line of Missile Stakes betting at $4.20 behind boom sprinter Rain Affair.

Queenian, the $3 Rosebud favourite, has already been stakes-placed in the Group Three Kindergarten Stakes and Rawiller believes the best is still ahead for the David Payne-trained runner.

"He strikes me as a horse that David hasn't really got to the bottom of yet," Rawiller said.

"He's still got improvement in him, the way he races he's still a baby and he's had to do it with some big weights. I think he's a nice horse and I think his last-start win would have done a lot for his confidence."

Rawiller, who kicked off his season in Sydney with a winner in the opening race at Canterbury on Wednesday, said Squamosa didn't have a point to prove in the Missile despite failing at his most recent outing.

"I think we all know he is a lot better horse than he was at Gosford," Rawiller said.

"The track that day was chopped out and I don't know but he might not have backed up after winning so well first-up.

"He's a very good horse and I would say just to forget about Gosford."

Squamosa has won four of his sixstarts and finished second in the Group One Golden Rose last August after jumping from an outside barrier.

The four-year-old son of Not A Single Doubt was given a three-week freshen up after the Takeover Target Stakes and scored a narrow win in an 800m Warwick Farm barrier trial last Friday.
