Trainer David Hayes has made an important gear change for Queensland Oaks hopeful Star Fashion on the 30th anniversary of his father Colin Hayes's biggest Queensland win.

The late Colin Hayes is a Hall of Fame trainer but he was a rare visitor to Queensland with Look ALoft's 1984 Queensland Oaks his best win in Brisbane.

David Hayes was the youngest trainer inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2008, but is yet to taste Group One success in Brisbane.

Star Fashion has the form to be a genuine Queensland Oaks (2400m) hope at Eagle Farm on Saturday.

Hayes has taken the near side blinker off for the first time and added blinkers again to Star Fashion's gear. He has also taken the bubble cheekers off.

"I was worried she might hang with the one-eyed blinker so I put the full blinkers on her," Hayes said."

"She has worked the Brisbane way of going when in Sydney without any trouble so I don't see her having any trouble on Saturday."

Hayes said the threat of rain was no worry for Star Fashion although she would not want it too wet.

"She deserves another chance at a Group One and her record should be a lot better than it appears on paper," he said."

Star Fashion ran close seconds in the Group One Australasian Oaks and Listed Centaurea Stakes at her past two starts.

Although Star Fashion's only win was in a Geelong maiden she ran second in the Group Two Edward Manifold Stakes (1600m) in Melbourne during the spring.

Comeback jockey Jeff Lloyd takes over on Star Fashion.

He missed 13 months of racing after suffering a stroke at Caloundra but has been in fine form since he resumed riding with seven winners since March.

Hayes said Lloyd should suit Star Fashion as he was a jockey who had ridden Group winners worldwide.

Arabian Gold remains the dominant favourite to give trainer David Vandyke his first Group One success.
