"It's our neighbour, it's very close to home, she's been to Sydney and she's raced well there."
The Group One BMW (2400m) and Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2000m) are autumn options in 2015 for this year's Australian Oaks winner.
Logan monitored Rising Romance after the Caulfield Cup and gave the green light for the 4-year-old to run in today's 2000m weight-for-age race.
"I can't fault her," Logan said.
"Her work has been good. She has put on weight, she's eaten everything, I think she's still got enough sprint in her legs and she looks magnificent."
Rising Romance went to the Caulfield Cup at her 14th start, 12 months after making her debut at Avondale before breaking her maiden in November at her third start.
"She won a maiden at a place called Dargaville in New Zealand, no-one has probably even heard of it, and within a year she was running second in the Caulfield Cup," Logan said.
"That's a huge effort for any horse so I'm very, very proud of her."
Logan said all the Mackinnon Stakes rivals had to be respected.
She would leave the tactics to James McDonald, who produced a top ride from a wide gate in the Caulfield Cup.
"He's the professional on top. He can make those decisions when the gates open," Logan said.
Rain is predicted but that does not worry Logan.
Rising Romance is at $6 behind Epsom Handicap winner He's Your Man and Criterion ($5.50).
