Removal specifically about shapes (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ovals

'shapes' is the definition.
(oval is a kind of shape)

'removal specifically about' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (the clue goes around or about the answer).
'OVALS' is hidden in the letters of 'removal specifically'.

(Another definition for ovals that I've seen is " Elliptical shapes".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
