A SHADOW OF DOUBT (8) scored a convincing win when resuming from a spell as a hot favourite last time out at Carrick, finishing 15 metres ahead of his rivals. No harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon. Can take the next step. POST KEG (3) came from the back row when he placed fresh then finished fourth last start, beaten 5.6 metres at this circuit. Draws well and could be ready to peak. SERIOUSLY SAM (5) ended last prep with three successive placings at this venue. Proven fresh so is capable of a forward showing. NORBET (10) draws on the second line but has claims off a second here two back.
