Echuca Race 2 - Bourke Builders Mdn Plate
Craig Weeding holds the key here with four acceptors, three of them who are yet to be seen at the races. The one who has, WESTERN LANE (2), is on debut for the stable but heads south after a couple of runs this prep, including an on-pace two-length second at Wyong, which he only needs to repeat to be a chance here. SILVER CAPITAL (1) was well-supported first-up and ran well but might have just found the 1000m a bit sharp. With that under the belt and up to 1209m here he should go close. ANGEL'S GATHERING (3) was far from disgraced in two runs in the debut prep and has been given three jumpouts ahead of the return, so he should be pretty forward. The wide gate could be the issue. STERNIN (10) should be at peak fitness after four runs back and although second-last last time, that was in town and she was only beaten 1.5 lengths. GALAXY'S EDGE (9) is one of those Weeding debutants who was good on-speed in his Bendigo jumpout win and draws well.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 8 at Goulburn Mdn on February 12 over 1100m, 3 len behind Interro with 59kg at $2.45. Second run from a spell led but faded 2nd of 7 at Wyong 4yo+ Mdn on February 26 over 1200m, slow going 2 len behind Fleet Flyer with 54.5kg at $4.60. Rates highly. On debut for the new stable and form up north good enough to measure up here.

Gelding by Russian Camelot making his first appearance. Won a jump-out at Pakenham on March 10. Ridden along but responded well to win latest jumpout, so might give a sight on speed.

Filly by Cliff's Edge facing the starter for the first time. Trialled on March 10 at Kilmore over 1000m and finished sixth. Did little in Kilmore trial at latest, but strong all the way winner of a Bendigo jumpout prior, so not dismissing from the good gate.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily second last of 7 at Caulfield Heath Mdn-Sw on March 4 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Absolute Power with 57kg at $7.50. The run before that did the work up front then tired 5th of 13 at Ballarat Mdn-Sw on February 14 over 1000m, 1.0 len behind Lonstar with 57kg at $3.90. Finds a nice race this time and is expected to go very well.

Racing well recently. Most recently raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at Pakenham Mdn-Sw on March 12 over 1200m, 4 len behind Chowdown with 59.5kg at $71. The run before that set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 8 at Sale Mdn-Sw on March 1 over 1212m, on a wet track; 2 len behind Louis Barthas with 59.5kg at $41. Has been adequate at big prices in last couple and comes into it from the good gate.

Second-up. First-up after eight months second last of 9 at Ballarat Mdn-Sw on February 22 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Wazing carrying 59.5kg at $12. Previously second-up ran last of 10 at Geelong Mdn-Sw on May 23 over 1443m, 7 len behind Shimonoseki carrying 59.5kg at $61. Hasn't done a lot to date and probably need to see again.
