The club is back a week earlier than planned after arranging a swap for the new date on November 5.
"The Show has moved to early November ... that date was swapped so that we race here on Friday and it's good to be back," Wagga racing manager John Patton said.
"Trialling sessions have continued since we last raced on August 27 and trainers supported the club with strong nominations."
Wagga's 11-race program is highlighted by a competitive, compelling Free For All sprint over 320m.
Charming Meeka (box six) arrives at the track for the first time after a solid 17.83 win at Bathurst on September 6 and takes on the best short-course sprinters in the region.
Her seven rivals boast 43 wins at the track over 320m with Got A Group meeting three rivals she accounted for at Wagga's last meeting (August 27) in a solid 18.27.
Got A Group has registered eight wins and 12 placings from 22 starts and, for the first time, comes up with box eight.
Rod Oakman's rising four-year of Tranquil Gypsy (box five) boasts 19 career wins all at Wagga with 11 being posted at Friday's sprint trip.
Despite approaching 'veteran' class and ideally positioned closer to the inside, Tranquil Gypsy is racing in career best form and is sure to attract solid support.
The first race at Wagga gets underway at 5.49pm.
