Damian Lane won't be packing his worry beads when he heads to The Valley for the A$5 million All-Star Mile tomorrow.
The champion Australian jockey doesn't seem anywhere as worried as many others are about the challenges facing New Zealand's best racehorse Probabeel in Victoria's newest great race.
After being joint favourite for the All-Star since her stunning Futurity win three weeks ago, Probabeel has drifted this week after drawing barrier 10, and because rain threatens to hit Melbourne tomorrow.
But Lane, who has been red-hot all summer and rode Probabeel in both her recent wins there, isn't as concerned as bookies or even others close to the wonderful mare.
"For a start I am confident the rain may not turn up and even if it does it might be late in the day," Lane told the Herald.
