Harness racing in the Riverina will resume from a brief suspension on Tuesday with an eight-race TAB card at Wagga.
Walker, one of the most accomplished horsemen in the region, will bring a team of five pacers to the meeting.
Walker has Plumpton Road and Funnily Enough in the opening event, the TAB Odds & Evens NR55 Pace (2270m).
Daryll Perrot stays on Plumpton Road from gate seven and Walker believes the four-year-old is the pick of his five.
"There's no stars amongst them," Walker said.
"Plumpton Road goes good. He's drawn wide, and it's probably not his pet trip, but he's been in good form.
"He hasn't had a run in five weeks but he should go good."
Roll A Dream gets a chance to win her second race, despite drawing the second row in the Auswest Seeds NR 47 Pace (2270m).
"She's a chance," he said.
"It's not very strong. She's a bit of a one-batter but she goes okay."
Red, a four-year-old by the late Alta Christiano, will make his debut in the Lion Nathan Pace (2270m).
"He's not hopeless and works with the rest of them," he said.
The meeting will be the first of those to be called, by Anthony Manton, from the Sky Racing office in Sydney. The call will still be played on track.
