Close Shave is one to look out for now handicapping and any market support would certainly make him interesting given jockey booking and a trainer going well. Canadian Steel is another handicap debutant and he may be on a lenient mark for this while Like A Demon will surely prove his latest Clonmel effort to have been subpar. Camlann may have found his Fairyhouse run came too quickly off the Down Royal win previously and is a leading contender now but a chance is taken on the returning DUBAI DEVILS. He has gone close in maidens before and looks to be on a workable mark now returning from almost a year off.
