Good Form Preview - Tuesday @ Echuca

The Game Plan for Echuca – with Jason Bonnington (@jasonbonnington)
Echuca can be a tricky track to play at sometimes but it definitely suits those with early speed and leaders generally get their chance to break through if they’re good enough. Having said that, I’m going to to target just a couple of likely leaders along w/ some value runners among my four Value Bets while I’m very keen on one Money Race in particular and I’ll also be having a crack at the Quad as per usual.

Best Value ($10 Each Way)

Salute The Wind (Race 1 no. 7) $5.50
The concept of being ‘in the zone is even more important for trotters than pacers and there is little or no doubt that this bloke is on the zone right now. He’s no moral but at the Each Way quote he’s worth an Each Way wager tonight.

The Numbers Man (Race 5 no. 4) $4

He is the first of our two ‘leaders’ worth backing tonight. I’m not sure anyone would accuse him of being the strongest animal going around but if he can float past Its Murphy Law (2) at the start then the 1755m will suit and he looks awfully difficult to beat.

Black Jasmin (Race 6 no. 9) $9

In terms of big value, he looks our best chance for a really decent collect. In short, he has the best form in the race and while he has a difficult draw t overcome it is a thin race and he does follow out a quick beginner so with even luck he’ll figure in the finish here for sure.

Nolagalile (Race 8 no. 4) $4.50

She is another likely leader that will be very hard to run down if she finds her favourite role in what looks a seriously moderate field.

The Money Race - Race 4

This is a super betting race as Goforzoe (1) is the second best horse engaged for mine but should have the advantage of holding the lead while Charlotte Two (5) looks the best horse engaged and she  is versatile enough to do some work in transit. I’m tipping they will draw away  with any luck at all here and any of the rest have some hope of snaring third place.

Star Trialler (Racing Today)

Donoson (Race 7 no. 6) $4.50
I love this horse. A former star juvenile, he has any amount of ability and after winning a Bendigo trial and narrowly missing out behind Bitobliss in a Shepparton qualifier where they ripped home in 56.7 he should be primed for a big run tonight. Stable reports suggest he won’t be pushed off the arm though so don’t break the bank if you’re having a wager. Click here to view his Shepparton trial.
