Echuca Race 7

A & R Water Solutions Mdn Trot

Prize Money: $6,000

BIG RAIN (1) isn't finding it easy to break through but she is quite consistent and gave a good sight from this barrier last time, leading for a 3.6m third at Kilmore. Placed in both tries at this distance and finds the right race this time so can put a win on the board. MI BOW (3) is a long-time maiden but she draws better than last start and was racing well with a string of placings prior. From this favourable barrier she is capable of playing a major role. GREAT HORIZON (2) draws well and was solid when third last time at Swan Hill, his third placing in his last four outings. SPESHAL (7) has made mistakes at her last couple but put together a series of placings prior so can feature with manners.
