The 20-year-old finished a narrow second in his first race steer aboard Blissful Donna but has three more chances in what has been a busy patch for harness racing at Wagga.
He's hoping to strike it lucky.
"It started off pretty good with Blissful Donna coming second by just a head," Scott said.

His first three drives were for parents Hellen and John Scott but the 20-year-old is looking forward to the opportunity presented to him by Paul Kahlefeldt aboard Sheiswatching.
"Paul Kahlefeldt has given me a drive, which I'm grateful for being my second night," Scott said.
"For another trainer to give me a drive I'm happy with and she should go good depending on the position I end up in.
"Hopefully she can finish off strong and I can get a placing or a win if I'm lucky."
