Stable apprentice Caitlin King will get her chance to record the first win of her career when she is legged aboard Blinkin Elle in the Allendale Merino Stud Benchmark 60 Handicap (1400m).
Lundholm had set the gelding for Dubbo's Derby Day meeting but when it was washed out it robbed King of breaking her maiden in front of her Victorian-based parents.
Anthony Cavallo was in the saddle when the five-year-old went on to win nine days later, but Lundholm will return to King for the ride tomorrow.
Her four-kilogram claim means Blinkin Elle gets into the race with just 55.5kg after originally being allocated 59.5kg by the handicappers.
The gelding, owned by long-term stable client Errol French, will be one of three runners the trainers lines up in the race, as he will be joined by stablemates Big Black Beauty and Spanish Fly.
Both resumed from spells in the race won by Cool Ice over the unsuitable 1000m trip on the same day Blinkin Elle won, and will benefit from the added race fitness as well as a step up in distance.
Kody Nestor will be aboard Big Black Beauty while Erhan Kacmaz has been entrusted with the ride on Spanish Fly.
The depth of talent in the Lundholm stable will also be on display in the Bell River Thoroughbreds Class 2 Plate (1100m) where last year's Silver Goblet winner Any Blinkin Day and runner-up in this year's edition Snippety Sip will compete.
Any Blinkin Day (Kody Nestor) resumes from a spell after being unlucky when going winless last preparation while Snippety Sip (Jake Pracey-Holmes) was brave when he resumed from a spell with a second placing behind Talimena at Narromine two weeks ago.
Eight races are set down for the Wellington program, which will begin at 12.55pm and conclude at 5.21pm.
