It's taken time but trainer Danny Bougoure is hoping his resurgence can continue with Our Mr Stilts, his likely sole runner at Eagle Farm on Wednesday.

Bougoure has two runners entered on the program - Our Mr Stilts in the Sita Environmental Handicap (1835m) and debutante Bella Sierra in the Australian Special Metals Maiden Handicap (1000m).

However, Bougoure is contemplating scratching Bella Sierra who is drawn awkwardly in barrier 12.

Bougoure made his name both in Australia and internationally with former glamour sprinter Falvelon who won successive Group One Doomben 10,000s in 2001-2002 and Hong Kong Sprints at Sha Tin in 2000-2001.

The desire to test his skills among the country's best trainers prompted Bougoure to move to the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria in 2004.

"I didn't like the weather in Melbourne but I decided to stay there until I got a decent price for my property I bought at Mornington," Bougoure said.

"I was always going to come home but I came back sooner rather than later."

Bougoure, whose father Doug put the early polish on champion Strawberry Road, returned to Queensland to continue training 12 months ago.

His best day since arriving home was at Ipswich last Friday when he trained a double as well as two placings from four starters.

"I've trained about 20 winners since I've been back but the double at Ipswich last week was my best day," he said.

Bougoure has slowly built up his stable to 20 horses in work and is hoping Our Mr Stilts can continue his recent run of success.

"I've had about five or six winners in the city since I've been back and I'm hoping for another tomorrow," he said.

Our Mr Stilts has been racing consistently in weaker class with a win and two placings from his past three appearances.

He narrowly won a 1800-metre class three at the Gold Coast on July 18 before finishing third over 1600 metres in the same class at Eagle Farm on July 29.

Bougoure was delighted with the six-year-old's effort last start when beaten in a photo-finish by D'Elcatraz in a no-metropolitan win race over 1800 metres at Eagle Farm on August 12.

"He's only a class three horse but he's been racing well over 1800 metres," Bougoure said.

"His last run in the no-metro race was very good."

Bougoure rates topweight Chilled, a last-start Eagle Farm winner over 1600 metres in class six company, as the main danger.

"Chilled hasn't been over the distance yet but looks the one to beat," Bougoure said.

"The new whip rules concern me a little.

"My horse is getting more cagy and cunning as he gets older and he needs the whip to get his mind on the job."
