Shane Scriven will replace injured rider Glen Colless when Queenslander Streets Away heads south for his Golden Slipper campaign.

Colless has ruled himself out of making his comeback to partner Streets Away in his Sydney debut in the Group Three Skyline Stakes (1200m) at Randwick on March 14.

And he rates himself a "million-to-one" chance of returning in time for the $3.5 million Group One Golden Slipper (1200m) at Rosehill on April 4.

Colless had surgery to pin his middle and little toes after they were almost severed when his left foot was crushed in an accident at Eagle Farm earlier this month.

He had stitches removed from the foot last week but said it would remain in a cast for another four weeks.

"The foot is healing well but it'll be four weeks before the pins in both toes come out," Colless said.

"I very much doubt I'll be back riding for at least another two months."

Streets Away emerged a serious Golden Slipper contender with an explosive victory at Doomben on February 7.

The win was arguably one of the best produced by a Queensland juvenile for some time and his Golden Slipper price was immediately slashed with the gelding now a $13 chance.

Scriven will get to know Streets Away when he partners him in a crucial 1000-metre barrier trial at the Gold Coast on Tuesday before the son of Street Cry heads interstate.

Scriven and Bailey had recent Sydney success with Frozone who won at Randwick February 6, the day before the Brisbane hoop won the Group Two Expressway Stakes (1200m) at Randwick on Burdekin Blues.

Weight problems have cost Scriven his chance of riding Burdekin Blues in next month's Group One Newmarket Handicap down the straight at Flemington.

Larry Cassidy, who is resting his injured finger this week, will ride Burdekin Blues after he won on the four-year-old at Eagle Farm last month.

Bailey is pleased with Streets Away's progress since his Doomben triumph and expects him to improve considerably with the barrier trial.

"I haven't done a thing with him since the win but he should go well in the trial," he said.

Bailey has a big opinion of Streets Away but won't hesitate to call the Sydney trip off if he thinks it will be in the youngster's best interests.
