Verdict

REVERBERATION went up 8lb for scoring at Dundalk in March but it made no difference at Fairyhouse last week where he came home in very convincing style. He has a penalty to carry but a hat-trick beckons. Passing Trade is 1-35 and, though running well without quite getting there, her strike-rate is an obvious concern. Pempie has moved from Andrew Balding and may just need the run but Trueba was only headed right on the line at Gowran, with Mk Drama eight lengths behind, though has taken a leap in the ratings. Out On Friday looks a major threat as he was well clear under today's rider over 1m1f at Tipperary and was only caught in the shadow of the post.
