Moody has opted to take his four-year-old entire north after a narrow second to Lidari in an open handicap over 1400m at Caulfield two weeks back.

The Adelaide Guineas (1800m) winner faces a stiff task if he's to win the race with Guy Walter's star galloper Toydini using the race as a key lead up to next month's Group 1 Epsom Handicap (1600m) at Randwick.

Gai Waterhouse pair Spurtonic and Our Desert Warrior have also been nominated for the Cameron alongside Bjorn Baker duo Cantonese and Havana Rey, and Peter Snowden's Proverb.
