Verdict

Whatsafellatodo makes his handicap debut after just two runs over fences but may need this. ECHOES OF FAMILY got the better of subsequent winner I'll Be That Lady at Fairyhouse six weeks ago and re-opposes on more favourable terms. Big Leg Up was tailed off when Brian McMahon’s mare finished second at Leopardstown in March and pulled up next time at Downpatrick so has a lot to prove now. Union Park may be the pick of the remainder ahead of An Droichead Eile.
