Verdict

ECHOES IN RAIN showed improved form to make the most of what looked a handy mark on just her second Flat start for this yard when scoring with plenty in hand at the Galway Festival and can enhance Willie Mullins excellent record in this race. Her stablemate Lot of Joy shaped very well from a bad draw when fourth behind the selection in the same race and rates a big threat on her second start for this yard, with improving 3-y-o Waterville also high on the shortlist.
