Hoff To Sea can break his maiden when he steps out at Echuca this afternoon.
The Bon Hoffa gelding was fair in two starts during his debut prep, and he worked home well to fill the minors after beginning awkwardly at Bendigo first-up this time.
He strips fitter and should receive every chance in running today.
Estilled has improved for two nice efforts since resuming this time and might not be offered a better opportunity to break her maiden.
The Skilled filly finished third, beaten a head at Swan Hill first-up from a spell, and she was only just denied at Wangaratta last time, as well.
Fitter third-up and with options from the rails draw, I think she’ll take beating today.
Catskill Mountain looks a key winning chance in the seventh at Echuca today, at a nice price ($7 at publish).
The Andrew Bobbin-trained gelding has recorded a win and two placings from four starts back this time, and he has been freshened since finishing fifth in BM64 company at Geelong in June.
I like that he has been back to the trials since that race and we can have an each-way play at the price.
Hypothetical faces a rise in class at Echuca this afternoon, but she has hardly put a hoof wrong since debuting, and this looks the next logical step for her.
The Pride Of Dubai filly finished second on debut at Mornington before charging through to break her maiden at Sandown, last time out.
Fitter third-up, I can’t find a reason why she won’t be in the finish.
