Two of the world's top-three ranked sprinters will be at Caulfield on Saturday, but they won't be clashing in a race.

Lankan Rupee is scheduled to have an exhibition gallop as he builds up for his return in the Lightning Stakes at Flemington on Saturday week.

The sprinter ended 2014 as the equal highest-ranked sprinter in the world alongside Terravista, the Darley Classic winner from the spring.

Sitting third on the sprinters' rankings was Chautauqua, who split Terravista and Lankan Rupee when second in the Darley Classic.

Chautauqua is entered to make his return in the $200,000 Group Two Rubiton Stakes (1100m) at Caulfield.

It's the same race that 12 months ago started Lankan Rupee's unbeaten autumn run.

Chautauqua won a jump-out at Flemington last Friday and has nine rivals in Saturday's race.
