Sydney's champion trainer has four runners in the race with Epsom Handicap runner-up Tom Melbourne and Group I winner Egg Tart the top picks.

Tom Melbourne is trading at quotes between $6 and $7 in the first betting on the Toorak Handicap while punters can get either $6.50 or $7 about Egg Tart scoring second-up.

Bookies have Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes runner-up Mr Sneaky and the Robert Smerdon-trained Theanswermyfriend between $8.50 and $10 in their first offerings on the $500,000 contest.
