Pammi has won around here but she seems to reserve her best nowadays for Perth. Quite lightly raced, COPPER COIN (NAP) bolted up at Uttoxeter at the start of the month and a similar effort would probably be enough to defy a 9lb rise in the weights. Morraman has been proving very consistent having slipped down the ratings a little this year but it’s difficult to make a case for many of the others on recent form.
