Copy has her first start in a Pattern contest in the Group Three 2015 Darley Crown over six and a half furlongs at Rosehill Gardens, Australia, on Saturday, May 9.
The four-year-old Street Cry filly, trained by John O'Shea, makes a third consecutive appearance at the Sydney course following two handicap outings over seven and a half furlongs, most recently when fifth on March 14.
She was a close third over the same course and distance on February 25, having finished second in a Canterbury Park handicap over just beyond six furlongs on February 11.
Copy has posted three wins, all at seven furlongs, including a pair of handicap victories at Warwick Farm in August and July, 2014.
John O'Shea said: "Copy is a fit mare that handles rain-affected ground.
"She is working well and a Group Three would normally be a big step up for her but it is the only race we can find for mares over a bit of a trip."
Brodie Loy takes over on Copy, who faces eight fillies and mares including Group Two scorer Solicit, Group Two runner-up Peron and Warwick Farm handicap winner Vergara.
