Race Tip

COPACABANA (1) wasn't far away when resuming last start, finishing third over 6f at Kembla Grange. Yet to miss the frame over this longer journey. The one to beat. VIKTOR (2) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7f at Kembla Grange, beaten 2. 25 lengths. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. HIGHLY TEMPTED (8) is fitter for two runs back from a lay-off, progressing nicely last time to finish fourth, beaten 2 lengths, at Rosehill over 6f. Siena Grima is yet to win when aboard but has never been out of the money from three rides. Expected to measure up. ROSE OF DUBAI (6) returned from a lay-off three weeks ago when she was beaten 4. 5 lengths into fifth over 6f at Wyong. Strips fitter and can feature in the finish.
