Verdict

ECHOES IN RAIN has her first start on the level since 2019 but returns on a good mark and can go one better than when runner-up to Honeysuckle in the Punchestown Champion Hurdle last month. Stablemate Berkshire Royal is also weighted to have a say and is next on the list ahead of Roscommon-second Sionnach Eile.
