Echoes In Rain (5/6), Bob Olinger (15/8), Meet And Greet (6/1), Darasso (14/1), Cash Back (20/1), Derry Lad (250/1)

Verdict

ECHOES IN RAIN is likely to bounce back from his fall in the Hatton's Grace and he takes preference over Bob Olinger, who hasn't been at his best for a while but still retains plenty of class. Meet And Greet is another one to consider.

  1. ECHOES IN RAIN (FR)
  2. BOB OLINGER (IRE)
  3. MEET AND GREET (IRE)
