ECHOES IN RAIN looked a Grade 1 winner in waiting when thrashing a promising field under her Grade 2 penalty at Fairyhouse earlier in the month, so she looks the way to go armed with a handy mares' allowance. Her stablemate Blue Lord boasts some strong form and looks the obvious threat if none the worse after his Cheltenham spill.
