Williamson thinks he is driving the best horse in race 12 - and based on the gelding's performances to date, he is probably right.
The son of Lis Mara has won three of his seven starts, and he has lost no admirers in his defeats either, including a brave fourth at Wyndham on February 22.
The 3yr-old was in action at the Oamaru trials on Saturday, when Williamson guided him to a half-length win in a four-horse field.
''He went good at the trials the other day where he beat Better To Be Bad, so that's pretty good form,'' Williamson said.
And domination should be a strong possibility after the barrier draw was completed.
Quick As A Trick landed barrier 1, and Williamson said he would be looking to lead.
''I'd say he will be too good so we'll look to dominate,'' he said.
''He's got plenty of gate speed too, so he should be fine [to get to the lead].''
The North Otago reinsman is keen to stay aligned with the Bruce Negus-trained pacer for features such as the Southern Supremacy Stakes, and he thinks the best is yet to be seen from the muscly gelding.
''Next season, he'll be a lot better horse too. He's so big that a wee bit of time will be good for him.''
Another Negus pacer ranks as Williamson's next-best hope.
Highland Reign may be yet to salute the judge after 14 starts, but the barrier gods have smiled down on the 3yr-old filly and Williamson feels she will have her chance from barrier 1.
The daughter of McArdle took care of Manchester Tom - a race rival tonight - at the trials, winning by two lengths, albeit in a slow 2.46.2 for the 2000m.
''She just needs to step; that's the only issue,'' he said.
''She trialled really good, but she just needs to bring that to the races.''
Williamson was keen on the chances of Tartan Trilogy, who has turned the corner in his last four starts although Williamson described his run for seventh at Waikouaiti on February 9 as ''unlucky''.
Co-trainer Geoff Knight suggested Tartan Trilogy's racing career was nearing an end before the Oamaru meeting on January 9, but the son of Mach Three found his racing mojo to string together three second placings in a row.
''He's been going well since then,'' Williamson said.
''It's just a shame the Mark Jones-trained one [The Ultimate Storm] drew inside of him. That makes it a bit tougher.''
Expressionist, another runner trained by Geoff and Jude Knight at Roxburgh, might find the equal terms of the mobile start against higher-rated runners a bit too rich for his tastes.
''I don't know if it's a really suitable race for him,'' Williamson said.
