Sydney jockey Nash Rawiller is looking to the heavens to help him claim the season's Group One riding honours for the first time on Super Saturday at Eagle Farm.

Rawiller, the nation's leading Group One rider with six wins, leads Craig Newitt and Damien Oliver by one win with three of the season's remaining four Group Ones to be decided on Stradbroke Handicap day.

Newitt is Rawiller's main threat for the Group One championship as Oliver was suspended on Queensland Oaks day at Eagle Farm last Saturday.

As well as the Stradbroke Handicap (1400m), two other Group One races, the Queensland Derby (2400m) and TJ Smith (1600m), will be staged after their transfer for the first time from the traditional Monday date on the Queen's Birthday weekend.

Rawiller's hopes of fending off Newitt will rely on Victorians Larry's Never Late in the Queensland Derby and Carrara in the TJ Smith while the Gai Waterhouse-trained Bank Robber will carry the former Melbourne rider's hopes in the Stradbroke.

Eagle Farm was rated heavy by most observers at Tuesday's Breakfast With The Stars track session and Rawiller's mounts all excel in the conditions.

Bank Robber was narrowly beaten by Duporth in the Group One BTC Cup (1200m) at Doomben on May 9 before producing a below-par performance when ninth to Apache Cat in the Group One Doomben 10,000 (1350m) a fortnight later.

"Bank Robber loves the wet, his trackwork has been really good and I think he's got a great chance in the Stradbroke," Rawiller said.

"He missed the start by half a length last start and he half-missed it the start before in the BTC Cup.

"It's a habit he's started to develop but it'll be up to me to rectify it in the Stradbroke."

Rawiller is unsure why Bank Robber, who will wear blinkers in the Stradbroke, was slow to leave the gates in the BTC Cup but knows the four-year-old can't afford a repeat performance.

"He was standing in the barriers for a long time so maybe that was a reason," he said.

"He sat back and then went up in the air and missed the start by half a length. It put us out of business and he can't do that in the Stradbroke."

Trainer Rod Douglas will let Rawiller decide his Queensland Derby tactics on Larry's Never Late who worked home strongly to finish third to Rockdale in the Group Three Rough Habit Plate (2020m) at Doomben on May 23.

It was the Pentire gelding's first run since finishing fourth to Rebel Raider in the Group One South Australian Derby (2500m) at Morphettville on May 2.

"He was strong at the end," Douglas said.

"He had a quiet time after he ran in the South Australian Derby but he worked well today at Wadham Park and will do more work tomorrow."

Larry's Never Late also ran in the Victoria Derby (2500m) at Flemington last November but could manage only sixth, almost seven lengths from the winner Rebel Raider.

"He wasn't mature enough for the Victoria Derby. He stood Rebel Raider up 20 lengths at the 1000 metres and got beaten seven," Douglas said.

"He probably should have run a place in the Victoria Derby.

"He's a genuine chance for the Queensland Derby but Nash has a few ideas how best to ride him and I'll leave it up to him."

Carrara is expected to back-up in the TJ Smith following his game third to Shoot Out in the Group Two Sires' Produce Stakes (1400m) at Eagle Farm last Saturday.
