The awards coincide with Men Of League race day at Murrumbidgee Turf Club, which is one of the biggest fundraisers of the group.
Group Nine president John Morton believes the trio will be a good addition to the day and will have plenty to offer those in attendance.
“They’ve all played for Australia,” Morton said.
“We are a bit lucky to get those three.”
Wagga boy Brentnall has strong ties with the Melbourne Storm following their premiership success.
Legend Arthur Summons, who lives in Wagga, will also be in attendance.
Referees Scott Muir and Ben Whitby will host the presentation ceremony.
Morton expects they will rise to the occasion.
“It will be good,” he said.
“I’ve seen them in action so it will be good.”
The presentation starts at 11am, before the seven-race card.
