Shelbourne Race 7 - 550 Yds (Aa0)

SHOTGUN DEZ (2) has an impeccable record this course and distance, winning all four starts. Recorded a 4.5 lengths win (28.47) in an AA0 last time at Curraheen Park. Looks a leading chance on best. METAL KING (1) got the job done again after leading them home recording back to back wins, scoring by 2 lengths (29.48) at this track over 503m. Won at his only start from this draw. Can measure up again. SAWDUST BARRY (5) goes very well this course and distance starting 13 times for five wins and two minors. Recorded a 2.5 lengths win (29.91) in an A1 last time at this track. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. SURE EXILE (3) won by a wide margin last start. Hard to beat again.
