One to Watch – Echuca

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday December 31

Ciaron Maher and David Eustace took the weraps off this $1.6million Snitzel colt for the first time on New Year’s Eve and got the perfect result.

Three year-old Grand Admiral scored a length win in the 1200m maiden as a short priced favourite, although he made rider Linda Meech work to achieve the success.
