ON a card that contained two Grade 1 contests the most impressive display belonged to Echoes In Rain who won the Grade 2 Paddy Kehoe Suspended Ceilings Novice Hurdle in the style of a top prospect.

This Barnane Stud-owned mare defeated the subsequent County Hurdle hero Belfast Banter by eight lengths in a Naas novice hurdle last time and she looks even better than a literal reading of that form would suggest.
