Preview
DAWN COMMANDER was only narrowly touched off on his final start at Sligo last season in a useful looking maiden and in what looks a competitive maiden could come out on top. Atlantic Ocean ran well behind Clear Hills at Rathcannon and comes here with a previous run which is a bonus as does Ashtown who stayed on well from off the pace at Toomebridge last week. Waterunder and Following Dreams also have claims.

BEARLY LEGAL ran well on his final outing at Ballingarry last season and therefore looks the pick of this bunch. Oakmoss ran nicely last week and Old Supporter has form from Loughbrickland last season. Ballybogey and Emigrant Boy are notable newcomers while Hidden Harmony has track form which is encouraging.

WEE DOLL comes from the right yard and could well be the solution to this maiden having finished fifth in a bumper in August. Jacks Friend ran nicely last Sunday at Castletown and Commons Ruby has form to suggest she should be involved also.

Stable companions BACKSTAGE and NEDZERS RETURN stand out here and whichever takes part should be very hard to overcome. Lord Multifix should improve from his run last week and Call Box having won a winners last week steps back to Open company where he has experience. Essifer is an interesting track recruit having been rated 119 over fences.

A competitive race with Gardikos having run well last week but held on form by Tammys Hill who on his best form would be the one to beat having had Zemsky behind him last season at Kirkistown. Glenarriffe has decent form behind Court In Session and Some Chief is consistent. HUNCHEON WELLS gets a tentative vote here having run under rules in August and the yard has already had a winner.
