GOING: G

Quest Echuca Serviced Apartments Handicap 1600m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 19)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.28).  

Moderate tempo anticipated without a noted leader to run them along. Another tricky contest. PARIS SHIRAZ (10) won this grade at Warracknabeal and then went close at Seymour against her own sex. Has weight relief and she can secure a soft run from the rails gate. ENXUTO (1) is third-up and ready to show more. Has pieces of form good enough for this. KISS ME NED (3) was a heavily-bet Maiden winner before spelling and didn't have much luck at Seymour first-up. Egan sticks aboard and will use the low barrier. Quick improvement is likely. LADY PROISIR (8) is in a leading metro barn and is a third-up winner. Has plenty up the sleeve and is also a chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Paris Shiraz.
