Verdict
Very little form to go on here but the booking of Simon Torrens for SHESHOON SONNY, a winning bumper for Alan King, may provide dividends as his last two runs have been over fences. Betty Zane won a Cork bumper on testing ground in January while Rambling Rose won a Ballinrobe bumper last summer and showed a bit of potential over timber here in November. Krabat showed a bit of promise at Fairyhouse last month but was well beaten at Naas on Sunday while it wouldn't be a surprise to see a big run from newcomer Banks Boy with Jordan Gainford's claim a massive bonus after his Cheltenham exploits.
