GOING: S(6)

JON SNOW & ECHOES OF HEAVEN @CLEARVIEW PARK 2200m

Track: SOFT 6     True  

Eulogy Show can work over from a wide gate to lead. AVORIAZ (12) only came to the end of her run late on the poly track at Riccarton just over 3 weeks ago, after looking likely early in the run home. She drops 5.5kg this time, and with less time between starts, she will be a lot sharper here. In an even contest, she can get the job done at a decent price. PERSONA (10) was very poor last time out over 2000m, and will have the concussion plates on this time. Her form prior is a better guide, and she is worth another chance. PEACHY KEEN (1) is trained on the course and did win her only start here. She has been runner-up twice in a row this prep, and is overdue for another victory. Stick with her. MCCLINTOCK (2) was an upset winner here fresh up, when getting up late to score by a short-head. He has more to offer, and from a superior draw, he can take the next step immediately. WAL (8) tried hard but just couldn't get there last time out in BM75 grade. He just needs some luck from a wide draw to be a top 3 chance here. Each way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Avoriaz to be the one to beat at good odds in a very even field.
