La Fleurette lines up for her fourth run in this campaign in a $100,000 fillies and mares against six rivals over 1600 metres.
The five-year-old mare finished second, beaten a neck by Another Coolie at her last start in the Donald Cup.
“La Fleurette has a strong form line going through the Donald Cup,” Wilde said.
“She was beaten by Another Coolie who would have been hard to beat in the Port Fairy Cup on Thursday at Warrnambool if the races had gone on.
La Fleurette has won at Sandown and been placed there previously which is a real bonus.

“La Fleurette has won at Sandown and been placed there previously which is a real bonus.”
Wilde also saddles up Floral Fever in a $100,000 restricted event on the nine-race program.
“It’s a lucrative race for Floral Fever as it carries VOBIS bonuses,” he said.
“His first run back was in the China Bowl at Ararat and it was a good effort.”
Sandown track manager Tim Bailey said a track inspection on Saturday morning would determine if the meeting would go ahead following rain.
