Trainer Chris Waller has begun the new racing season by managing his stable across Sydney and Melbourne. Initially, Waller split his three-year-old colts between locations, sending Central Europe, Hidrix, and Striking Alibi to compete in Sydney, while moving Confederation to Caulfield for the Group 3 Vain Stakes due to previous track temperament issues.

As the season progressed, Waller shifted focus toward Group 1 competition, preparing five runners—Angel Capital, Birdman, Buckaroo, Autumn Boy, and Beiwacht—for the Memsie Stakes at Caulfield. Angel Capital is highlighted as a potential multiple Group 1 winner heading into the 1400m race.
