Ripple Effect had no easy task at the weights, but she had run well against the vastly improved Hurricane Coast on her previous start and positively bolted up. She was travelling conspicuously well coming down the hill, held up on the inner, and she burst clear inside the final furlong to win with plenty in hand. She will merit serious consideration if making a quick appearance in a Handicap on Saturday.
