Reigning New Zealand Horse of the Year Bonneval's return to her Cambridge base is imminent.
The multiple group one winner and the country's top-rated performer was sidelined earlier this year with a suspensory ligament issue.
"She's looking good and she'll be back in the stable next week, along with JonSnow and we are hopefully looking toward the Melbourne spring with them again," said Murray Baker, who trains in partnership with Andrew Forsman.
Meanwhile, the stable has two strong chances in the 2YO (1200m) at Hawke's Bay today.
The in-form Qiji Express and the debutante Ignored will both appreciate the expected dead5 going at Hastings.
Qiji Express finished third two runs back after racing three wide without cover and on his return to Te Rapa for the Listed Waikato Equine Veterinary Centre Stakes (1200m) he was again luckless.
The Shamexpress colt ran fourth after being blocked for room in the straight.
