Trainer Jason Warren, based in Mornington, has affirmed Coffey as the replacement for the regular rider, Daniel Stackhouse. Stackhouse will be serving a suspension, necessitating a change for Benedetta’s second-up autumn appearance. Benedetta’s most recent outing saw her claim a fourth-place finish behind Queman in the Oakleigh Plate. Horse racing betting sites have Benedetta marked as a +1400 chance for the Newmarket Handicap.
