Shopfrontspecialst is still a maiden after 16 starts and ran poorly on two visits to Perth in May. Macra Na Feirme ran well when runner-up at Clonmel in May but has failed to build on that and is another long-time maiden. Arguidos showed improved form when third behind Carlowsantana at Gowran in April and as that was his first start since December he obviously goes well fresh. Eyeffess has won once from 38 career starts but was in good form at this time a year ago from a much higher mark though the one to be on looks to be MR BONES despite his big weight. A winner at Bellewstown on Sunday, he can defy a penalty in a race that shouldn't take too much winning.
