Lack of early speed means Aurora Effect could find the lead. COCO DIOR (5) ran third to Master Of The Air in the heavy (8) going here last prep and ready to show up at her third run back. Gets map favours and will take stopping. DERRY CITY FELIX (1) staying type coming along nicely with the two career runs. Gripped on late with the 59kg for a game fourth over 1500m at Hawkesbury. Will appreciate the conditions and stays in the mix. AURORA EFFECT (7) even return with a plugging fifth over 1400m at this track. Will handle the extra trip and the conditions. Improver. RIBBLE LACE (6) third-up today and comes back in trip. Failed to run on when eighth over 18000m at Newcastle. Should get through the conditions and worth thought. SUGGESTED PLAY: Coco Dior finds her race.
