Echuca Race 1

O'connors Case Ih Mdn Plate

Prize Money: $42,500

BAGANOV (2) is a gelding by Russian Revolution making his first appearance. Has been well educated and won a Flemington jumpout most recently. Looks promising and maps for the run of the race. INTERROGATE (7) is a gelding by Toronado on debut for a top metro barn, and he has also had a string of jumpouts. Placed the last two at Cranbourne jumps from an inside gate. A player as well. DIMACHAERUS (5) is another debutant who deserves plenty of attention on what we've seen FANFIRE (12) and CRIES AND WHISPERS (3) are both second-up and likely to show more. They had both jumped out well leading into the debut runs.
