I'll Be That Lady²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Phillip Enright| T: B McMahon| OR: 102

15/8

Career best when winning 17-runner handicap chase at Tipperary (17.3f, good to soft, 5/1) 23 days ago, easily. Hit with 10 lb rise but very much one to keep on the right side of back up in trip.

13/2, pulled up in handicap chase at Downpatrick (23.5f, soft) 22 days ago, folding tamely. Looks one with problems all of a sudden.

Echoes Of Family⁴²

Age: 10| Weight: 11-6| J: N Terrassin⁽⁷⁾| T: E & P Harty| OR: 101| D

11/2

One win from 22 NH runs. Didn't need to improve to win 12-runner handicap chase at Fairyhouse (21.4f, good to soft, 7/1) 42 days ago, by ½ length from I'll Be That Lady, leading near finish. Up 6 lb but should give another good account.

Forecasts

I'll Be That Lady (15/8), Echoes Of Family (11/2), Union Park (6/1), Whatsafellatodo (15/2), Outside The Door (8/1), Alpha Male (10/1), An Droichead Eile (10/1), Zagnzig (10/1), Dympnas Well (10/1), Tesseract (12/1), Sidetracked (25/1), Big Leg Up (25/1), Deux Par Deux (50/1)

I'LL BE THAT LADY barely came off the bridle when opening her account at Tipperary 23 days ago, so a 10 lb rise may not be enough to prevent the follow up back up in trip. Union Park and Alpha Male head the opposition.
