Victorian trainer Charlotte Littlefield can confirm her Saturday plans after The Muffin Man snuck into the Group 1 Queensland Derby field.

Beau Dazzler had his Queensland Derby odds blow out after a flat second-up run, but the Maddy and Tony Sears training team is bullish the young colt can bounce back.

Trainer Grahame Begg has a high opinion of Group 3 winner Niance and has found a nice race for her return in the Bel Esprit Stakes at Caulfield.
