Following a big long weekend in Adelaide including Cup day on Monday, we are back to Morphettville Parks.
Darren Weir often sends his impressive maiden winners with metro class to Adelaide as we saw last week with Iconoclasm.
Another of those was Ancient Echoes who sat near the speed and trotted in at Swan Hill.
Even from this start he should be able to find a spot over the 1400m. All he needs is a dry track to show his best.
He has clearly improved since the Spring. Hoping to get a nice price given it is a competitive race.
Onto the last where Despatch will be having his third start in his third state.
Winning in Victoria on debut on Ballarat Cup day, he was then to Brisbane leading into the Magic Millions but third was best.
He then had a long time off but has trialled very nicely giving him some confidence.
Expecting him to be pushed forward from an outside draw to find a nice position and be tough to beat.
