Patinack Farm fillies Forest Doll and Gypsy Rock will be assessed as possible spring candidates in Sydney following their assignments at Doomben.
Forest Doll, a Stathi Katsidis mount, will line up in Wednesday's Blackwoods Maiden Handicap (1100m) while Jim Byrne will partner first starter Gypsy Rock in the Livestock Transport Maiden Plate (1200m).
Patinack Farm assistant trainer Toby Edmonds has a good opinion of both fillies who are daughters of Stravinsky.
"Gypsy Rock is having her first start but she trialled very well behind Military Rose recently," Edmonds said.
"It was her second trial as she also ran third at Deagon last month."
Gypsy Rock was beaten just over two lengths by Magic Millions winner Military Rose in a 1000-metre barrier trial at the Gold Coast on July 20.
"If they win well it's possible they could both go to Sydney for the spring," Edmonds said.
"We'll assess things after they run tomorrow but like all our horses we'll be trying to win black type with them."
Forest Doll ran fourth in her first barrier trial at Warwick Farm in January when under the care of Patinack Farm boss John Thompson who then spelled her and sent her to his stable's Gold Coast base.
The three-year-old won a 900-metre barrier trial at Deagon on July 6 before making a good impression on debut when runner-up to Miss Mimmick when she lost a plate in a 1200-metre maiden at Eagle Farm on July 21.
"She was quite good on debut and she's drawn well (five) again tomorrow and should run well," Edmonds said.
Edmonds is hoping for strong performances from both fillies before the stable moves to Wadham Park near Canungra in the Gold Coast hinterland.
"We'll be moving to Wadham Park in the next two weeks but we'll have a few runners at Eagle Farm next Wednesday," Edmonds said.
"We've got room for 60 horses where we are now but Wadham Park can hold 72 horses and we'll have our own private track and the facilities that come with it and room to spell up to 40 horses.
"Wadham Park is a beautiful spot and we feel we'll get more from our horses there."
Wadham Park has a 2000m grass track with a 600m straight and an uphill finish as well as a 2000m artificial track.
In a contra-deal, former Wadham Park trainer Dale Sutton has taken over Tinkler's stables at Ascot Court adjacent to the Gold Coast racetrack, as well as other monies changing hands.
In 2005, the founder of Toll Holdings, Peter Rowsthorn, spent an estimated $20 million on two Canungra properties and Tylden in Victoria.
Sutton, who developed Wadham Park from scratch, now trains at Tylden but also plans to reopen a smaller operation on the Gold Coast.
