It is hard to get too excited about a 28-race maiden but DUKE'S GIRL ran one her better races last time out at Perth when finishing in the money and is able to race here off a 10lb lower mark. Another who is racing off a favourable handicap mark is Celtic Monarch who won a race at Uttoxeter last season off a 10lb higher mark. Excitement for his chances are tempered by the fact he has a long absence to overcome. There should be plenty of interest in Walking On Glass who made a very pleasing handicap debut at Tramore recently, doing his best work in the closing stages and races here off the same mark.
