New Zealand's leading jockey faces an odd situation tomorrow when he takes on Melody Belle, a horse who he's enjoyed some of his biggest successes with.              

Although Opie Bosson has won eight races riding Melody Belle, tomorrow he will be aboard Matamata-trained Te Akau Shark for the group one Queen Elizabeth stakes at Randwick in Sydney.  

Despite a hoof query earlier this week the Te Akau Shark has been cleared to start by Racing New South Wales vets.
