Placed in a claiming maiden at Navan in August, J M'S JOY made late headway in a decent contest won by a subsequent Listed winner at Listowel last time. Her dam won six races for Pat Martin including a couple on heavy ground and the daughter of Elzaam has prospects in a race restricted to those rated no higher than 75. Tangapour shaped well in a strong maiden at Leopardstown and is capable of better than his well-beaten third on the all-weather since. Fairhaven, a disappointing favourite at Down Royal, handled heavy ground well when third at Roscommon while Heldtoransom wasn't far behind the placed horses at the Curragh last month and is another in the mix.

HELDTORANSOM looks the obvious one after 2 promising efforts. Fairhaven has the form to play a part if bouncing back, while Tangapour may yet do better.

TANGAPOUR gets the nod. He shaped well in a much stronger race than this on debut and if he can repeat that run, he is the one to beat.

QUATRAIN was runner-up on her first two starts at Gowran Park and handled soft ground well on the first occasion. Outclassed in a Listed race in June, the daughter of Mastercraftsman had been off three months before finishing third to a talented newcomer at Listowel and will be sharper for that outing. Vadali has some solid form on soft ground and went close at the Galway festival in August. Below-par at Punchestown last time, he now goes without the hood. The selection's stablemate Ata Rangi had some creditable runs on testing ground early in the season and returns from a break while Castanets has been consistent but needs to find a bit more and is unproven on easy ground.

QUATRAIN has been placed on all 3 of her starts in maidens and this could be a good opening. Castanets and Vadali must be considered also.

A hopeful vote goes to QUATRAIN, who handled soft on her debut and has been placed on all three maiden attempts

SAITH SEREN has shown promise in her first two handicaps and may improve for the application of a tongue-tie. Andrew Lee's filly handled soft ground when fifth in Galway festival contest that has worked out well and was a bit keen when sixth to older horses over C&D last time. Back against her own age group, she's capable of a big run. Nika Pika represents a yard that has hit form and made late headway when second at Listowel. Nans View showed up well on soft ground when second on handicap debut at Galway while the consistent Finsceal Annie went close on yielding ground last time but may be better suited by a sounder surface.

CARRIED WITH LOVE can improve now handicapping and could open her account faced with a quick turnaround following her much-improved display at Down Royal last week. Finsceal Annie, who was chinned at Bellewstown on Thursday, and Martinelli are a couple of the others to consider.

Patrick McGettigan's claim is a useful asset and may be enough to sway this in favour of Listowel runner-up NIKA PIKA

SAN AER goes well on testing ground and often comes good in the autumn. The C&D maiden winner has won the same late-season handicap at Galway in each of the last two campaigns and was a creditable third at that venue last month. Imposing Supreme was a winner at Galway in August and has plenty of form on an easy surface while Starting Monday, although a long time winless, is a real heavy-ground specialist and was second at Leopardstown in the spring. See Me Through showed good form in the first half of the season, including a victory over C&D, and has been gelded since last seen while Sirjack Thomas comes here after a string of good recent efforts.

A case can be made for a few of these but SEA CHARIOT comes here on the up so is taken to build on his Navan second and resume winning ways. Tachos heads the list of dangers on the back of her solid Gowran fifth ahead of in-form pair Walhaan and San Aer.

Gillian Scott had a winner at the Listowel festival and could strike here with STARTING MONDAY who should have his favoured ground.

Having finished runner-up on her latest two starts, the Joseph O'Brien-trained RADAR AHEAD can register a first career win. A real eyecatcher when staying on late into third on debut at Ballinrobe, the filly has done little wrong in two subsequent starts. From a favourable low draw, Dylan Browne McMonagle is likely to go forward and make this a proper test. Market Timing ran a very promising race when runner-up at Bellewstown in August, but may not have stayed when stepped up in trip at Navan last time. With an official rating of 83, the Ger Lyons-trained filly just about sets the standard. Get, who raced prominently before keeping on for third in that aforementioned Navan race, shouldn't be far away under Wayne Lordan.

RADAR HEAD possesses the best form on show so is taken to go one better than her recent Bellewstown second and get off the mark. Saol Gaelach is next on the list on the back of her solid Listowel fourth with Get and Elana Osaraio also well worthy of consideration.

Joseph O'Brien's team is in form and RADAR AHEAD (nap) should be hard to beat on the strength of last week's Bellewstown second

On 17lb better terms, FAIRY WINGS has every chance of reversing recent Listowel form with Beyond Your Dreams. Slowly away at the Harvest Festival, the Willie McCreery-trained filly had plenty to do in rear over two furlongs out, but stayed on well to get within four and a quarter lengths at the finish. If able to hold a more prominent early pitch here, the daughter of Rajj should relish the long straight. Despite being hit with a 10lb hike for winning that aforementioned race, Beyond Your Dreams looks an improving filly. Joseph O'Brien's daughter of Fastnet Rock is sure to be involved once again. Galway third Abbey Actress, who is bred to want this trip, could take a significant step forward.

Lots with chances. ABBEY ACTRESS took a step forward when third in a big field at Galway on her handicp debut and with the prospect of more to come over this longer trip she gets the vote. The handily-weighted Fairy Wings could emerge as the main danger with in-form duoTanazadia and Ice Opera both well in the mix too.

ABBEY ACTRESS is preferred. She showed promise on handicap debut at Galway, this step up in trip will suit and she is proven on soft

If anywhere near peak fitness on his first start since May, REALISM should have too much ability for these rivals. A 99-rated maiden who was Group 3-placed at the Curragh a couple of seasons back, the Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding has been plying his trade over hurdles. Following a respectable third at Cork when last seen, the five-year-old can lose his maiden status on his first Flat start since October 2022. Impero, who made a pleasing debut for the Cian Collins stable when runner-up over hurdles at Listowel, could be the main threat. Twice placed on the level at this track, the gelding is open to improvement for his in-form trainer. The vastly experienced Cast A Spell looks best of the remainder.

REALISM, who was third in a novice hurdle at Cork when last seen in May, is presented with a golden opportunity to open his account and it'll be disappointing should he fail to deliver. Palo Duro is preferred to Cast A Spell for forecast purposes.

This race revolves around the 99 rated REALISM. He'll be hard to beat on these terms if fit and retaining most of his ability.
