FormscanBy John O'Riordan - In a race where a couple of debutants catch the eye, the each-way value could lie with the once-raced BROSNA SHINE. Nicely supported when third in the Goffs Defender Bumper at the Punchestown Festival in April, the Sonny Carey-trained daughter of No Risk At All sets a fair standard. Hailing from a smaller operation, the four-year-old could easily be sent off at a backable price despite her solid form. A half-sister to four black type horses, the Willie Mullins-trained newcomer Babyburn is an obvious contender. With plenty of bumper winners in her pedigree, the daughter of Crystal Ocean is bred for the job. Point-to-point winner Ash Hobbs must also hold strong claims on her first start under Rules.
