The Gwenda Johnstone-trained three-year-old has earned a crack at the $150,000 feature race on the back of wins this month in a maiden event at Swan Hill and Wangaratta.
Get Ready For Love has since had a jump-out at Bendigo and won a trial at Echuca, and will be in peak condition for the event, which is one of plenty of big races on the stand-alone card.
Johnstone told Racing.com that the 1400m trip would be a stepping stone to 1600m races.
"She's got a chance, we'll be happy if we run in the first five," she said.
Much interest will centre on the $150,000 Golden Mile and $250,000 VOBIS Gold Rush for two-year-olds.
While the Rod Symons-trained Savannah Moon will carry the hopes of locals in the $110,000 Gold Bracelet, but will start as the outsider in an 11-horse field.
The first of nine-races is at 12.25pm.
