Scapolo, sired by Bachelor Duke from the dam Kadesa, by Zabeel, will have David Walker in the saddle.
The combination won the 1200m Swiss Ace Sprint on August 31, 2013, in Hastings.
"We're hoping for a wet track because it's a bit of a challenge for him and shuts others out," says the trainer who has had prominent placings on the premiership and boasts a swag of major flat and jumps races in New Zealand and Australia.
Praying for wet weather won't be an issue, he says because "the whole family goes to church".
Scapolo does 1min 24sec on a rating 6 and 1:29 on a rating 11 although he has done 1:22 before.
Myers is no stranger to Hastings, having won the $1million Kelt Capital Stakes on Balmuse in October 2004.
His other horses of late include Titch, William of Orange and Prestigiosa.
While his answers tend to be short and sharp Myers packs a healthy dose of wit.
"I'd rather have a cheque book than a scrap book," he replies as he grapples to establish specific details of his winners.
Asked how jockey Walker goes, he replies: "Not too bad."
He hastens to add the jockey had 10 wins out of the last 20 starts.
Scapolo's last victory was at Riccarton on August 2 when he won the 1200m Open handicap Premier Sprint on a heavy track.
Last November the gelding won the group two Coupland's Bakeries Mile at Riccarton.
Two seasons ago, he went on a four-start Victorian campaign, collecting two wins and two placings including a Melbourne Spring Carnival second in the listed Myer fashion at Flemington.
Last May he was runner-up at Caulfield.
Myers has nominations to enter Scapolo at the 2400m Caulfied Cup on October 18 and the Moonee Valley 2040m a week later.
