Echuca   21 Sep 2024
 
GOING: G(4)

Goodyear Autocare Echuca Moama Maiden Plate 1300m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 16)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.25).  

Anticipating a stack of early pressure over the sprint course with many of these facing the starter for the first time. DUBAI WATCH (8) should take great improvement from the debut run and had trialled well prior. TORVECCHIO (12) is from one of the country's top stables and will be better for two runs, which have both been in stronger races than this. ANCHOR DOWN (7) is a well-bred type who has performed well at two of his three starts. SNEAKY PINEAPPLE (4) was a recent jumpout winner who looks primed to run well on debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dubai Watch each-way.
