Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays at TAB meetings for January 6.
Gunnedah: Race 3 @ 3.20pm
This will be run at a slick tempo with Espressino prominent. ESPRESSINO (6) is hard to go past after an impressive debut last start over this trip at Quirindi, chasing solidly but finding the winner too slick. Has had a six-week let-up since that run and trialled well in the interim. Should be too good. THOUSAND ISLAND (3) is a debutante by Salade from a Danewin mare with a winner from her only foal. Finished a distant 3rd in a Kembla trial recently. Drawn well and likely to feature. ONE MORE POET (1) resumes. Raced four times in the maiden prep with a 3rd over this course and distance a highlight. Sure to run well. BELLA'S CHOICE (7) has claims after a close 2nd at Inverell last start. SELECTION: #6 Espressino will be too good for these.

Echuca: Race 5 @ 3:30pm
Frankel Star can dictate. MAJOR DAY (2) was working home nicely at Werribee last start, showing good improvement on his first up outing at Bendigo. Suspect he will be ready to go third up. CIRCULATE (9) has been solid in each of her two runs back from a spell. Ready for more ground third up and suspect she will relish it. JEPARIT (5) has improved with each run this campaign and was only narrowly beaten here over 2000m last start. NEVER BACK DOWN (7) finished among the placings last time when second at Benalla. Expected to run well. FRANKEL STAR (3) capable of better than what he has shown to date in Victoria. SELECTION: Going with #2 Major Day.
