The presence of the Kris Lees-trained Hera in the Girls On Track Final at Doomben on Saturday is welcome news for rival trainer Noel Doyle.
Doyle will start Aimee in the $100,000 race with the filly to carry 54kg.
Weights would have been raised four kilograms if Hera did not accept and Doyle was relieved to see Aimee remain on the minimum handicap.
"That is really good news about Hera. It means we get in on the minimum from barrier four and there will be no excuses," Doyle said.
Aimee was a last-start fifth to Rocket To Glory in the Gold Coast Stakes, beaten less than three-quarters of a length.
Doyle says the three-year-old is due for a change of luck.
"She was never on the track first up, ran into an absolute bog track second up and then third up her jockey Jason Taylor dropped the whip on the home turn," Doyle said.
Taylor reunites with Aimee at Doomben and is rapt to have retained the mount.
"It was a great run (last start) because we came from a wide alley and the winner ran 1:08.63, so when everything is added up it was a mighty run," Taylor said.
Aimee's five wins include the 2014 Group Three Ken Russell Memorial and Doyle is confident she can be competitive in the fillies and mares stakes races during the upcoming Brisbane winter carnival.
While Hera has been paid up for the Doomben race she is not a certain starter and is also among acceptances for the Group Two Emancipation Stakes at Rosehill on the same day.
Jamie Lovett, representing owners the Australian Bloodstock Syndicate, said they would decide in the next 24 hours whether Hera would run in Sydney or Brisbane.
"We are looking for a soft track and there is a prediction for rain in Brisbane on Friday and Saturday," Lovett said.
"But we will have to make up our mind on Wednesday night."
The Girls On Track series is a new Racing Queensland venture targeted at promoting fillies and mares racing.
It also aims to promote women in racing and carries a $5000 bonus for the leading female jockey and trainer at the end of the series.
