SHESHOON SONNY was beaten a long way into second in the fog at Exeter but the winner is well regarded and the rest were a long way behind. Dhowin ran well for a long way on the same track in January and will have come on a bundle for the experience while the four-year-old filly Eleanor Bob also came up against a well-regarded type when a long way second at Catterick. Almazhar Garde has a cracking pedigree for jumping and is definitely one to note on his racecourse debut.
