Tye Angland is entitled to feel a little bit cheated at not having a Group One win to his credit this season.

Instead, he is grateful to have had quality rides in major races.

The top jockey, who returned home in May after four years riding in Hong Kong, had a frustrating spring carnival in Sydney where a hapless run from a wide gate almost certainly cost him a Golden Rose victory on Scissor Kick.

He also finished a narrow second in the Group One Metropolitan aboard Opinion after the horse had its momentum stopped at a crucial stage.

"With me coming back from Hong Kong, obviously it would have been good to win a few of them but to pick up the horses I did straight away, I was pretty impressed with that," Angland said.

"I was quite competitive in a few good Group Ones, hopefully I can go one step further."

With 21 city wins this season, Angland sits fifth on the Sydney jockeys' table.

His support is widespread and he has a full book of rides at Rosehill on Saturday for eight different trainers - a circumstance that works for him.

"I'm always spread right out which is a good thing," he said.

"I can sort of pick and choose some horses and try and pick the best ones out of some stables - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't but the main thing is I'm getting support from everyone."

His Rosehill book includes Gary Nickson-trained two-year-old Voilier who makes his debut in the Sire Custodians Plate after impressively winning his only barrier trial by five lengths.

Voilier is a Magic Millions graduate and Angland has been taken by the youngster's professionalism as much as his trial performance.

"He's a little natural," Angland said.

"He wasn't hard-pushed but I gave him a bit of a squeeze just to see what he had there and he put them away very quickly and won his trial very nice."

Angland's remaining mounts include Furbish for Allan Denham in the Dissident @ Newgate Farm Plate and Mr Jackman for Gai Waterhouse in the Phillip Hughes Tribute.
