Trained by Peter Moody and Katherine Coleman, Cosmic Coco improved on a debut fourth at the same venue earlier this month to draw clear and win the 1400m maiden by a length with Luke Nolen in the saddle.

A $150,000 Magic Millions purchase for  Dalziel Bloodstock/Moody Racing Pty Ltd from the Newgate Farm draft, Cosmic Coco is the second winner f rom imported stakes-winner Coco as in Chanel (USA), whose next two dams are also stakes-winners.

Newgate sold a yearling colt by Extreme Choice from Coco as in Chanel at Inglis Easter this year for $1.2million to Rosemont Stud / Suman Hedge Bloodstock and she produced another colt by Extreme Choice last spring.
