Verdict

A low-grade handicap with few in any kind of form. Whip Whitaker is 0-13 and was beaten 13 lengths into third at Kilbeggan. He can't go any lower in the ratings nor can O Mio Babbino, a winner over fences at Thurles in February and 12lb lower over timber. WELL LOVED tackles the trip for the first time but would have a chance if she stays. She would have been placed at Naas in March but for falling at the last and was staying on over 2m4f at Tramore next time. Echo Gate ran well for a long way before fading at Fairyhouse and may be ridden with more restraint but winning point-to-pointer Tennessee Titan dropped down to 2m when producing his best run over hurdles at Wexford.
