Thomond O'Mara believes there is more improvement in Tornedo Shay, who put himself in line for the Cheltenham Festival by making a winning debut at Leopardstown. The four-year-old earned quotes varying from 16-1 to 33-1 for the Weatherbys Champion Bumper with a length verdict over the Dermot Weld-trained favourite Elegant Concorde on Sunday. "He's not too bad and he'll definitely improve from that," said the County Tipperary trainer.
