Tye Angland is hoping a week of sweat can create further spring Group One opportunities beyond a lightweight Epsom Handicap mount on Saturday.

Angland has taken the Epsom ride on Star Rolling, a Victorian-trained miler who has 53kg in the $500,000 race.

Given he has ridden around 55kg since returning from Hong Kong a few months ago, Angland is preparing for a week of diet and exercise to make Star Rolling's weight.

"It's not going to be easy. It's going to be a long week," Angland said.

"But it's about trying to push myself and seeing how low (in weight) I can get if something pops up in the big races coming up."

Trained by Peter Morgan and Craig Widdison, Star Rolling has been campaigning in Melbourne weight-for-age races, winning the PB Lawrence Stakes before finishing midfield in the Dato Tan Chin Nam Stakes and the Underwood Stakes.

Apprentice Winona Costin is waiting for trainer David Payne to make a decision on Honorius to find out if she will have her first Epsom ride.

"Because he's got a light weight and I've ridden him before there's a chance I could be on him if he runs," Costin said.

Costin's most recent ride on Honorius resulted in a close fifth to Entirely Platinum at Rosehill last month.

She also rode the five-year-old when he last figured in the placings before a spell.

Costin has one definite Group One booking for Saturday's Epsom meeting, retaining the ride on smart filly Press Report.

Apprenticed to Gai Waterhouse, Costin had her first Group One ride when she partnered the Lee Curtis-trained Press Report to a respectable midfield placing in the Golden Rose.

Press Report will step up to 1600m in the Flight Stakes.

"I'm pretty confident she can run the mile against the fillies," Costin said.
