The Echuca Cup headlines a competitive eight-race meeting on Sunday at Echuca, with $100,000 on the line for the feature race. Extreme weather conditions have forced an early start of 10:45am AEDT for the club’s marquee day. The track will start as a Good 4, with an upgrade to a Good 3 almost a certainty, while the rail sticks to its true position.

Echuca Cup Tip: Here To Shock

With a smart jumpout victory under his belt, Here To Shock brings all the right formlines into Sunday’s feature. The six-year-old gelding ran subsequent Group 1 placegetter Antino to a half-length in Group 3 company, and prior to that he was defeated by a length at Group 2 level during the Melbourne Cup Carnival. The 60.5kg is the only concern, but if Blaike McDougall can gain a cart into the race from a midfield position, Here To Shock should blow his rivals away.

VOBIS Gold Eldorado Tip: Belle Et Riche

Belle Et Riche was racing in much tougher races than this during the spring. She finished two lengths off Life Lessons in Group 2 company and was far from disgraced when chasing home Skew Wiff during the Melbourne Cup Carnival. In a small field of seven, Jarrod Fry will be stalking the speed and race favourite Show Some Decorum throughout, and with a swift turn of foot, Belle Et Riche should be charging clear of her rivals late.

Best Bet at Echuca: Storm’s Colours

Storm’s Colours can be hard to catch, but the six-year-old gelding looks to have found the right race to bring up an overdue success. Drawn in barrier one under John Allen, the Fighting Sun progeny will have no issue in finding the rail and dictating terms. He looks to gain a relatively uncontested lead, and if Storm’s Colours is anywhere near his best, this BM58 field will not get close to him.

Next Best at Echuca: Communication

Communication simply got too far back at Albury on February 18 to be a winning hope, but the Akeed Mofeed mare made up a stack of ground late on to suggest she was worth following. She looks to be natural backmarker these days, and with a genuinely run 1400m expected, she should be able to absorb the pressure and run down her rivals in the shadows of the winning post.
