The Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap is the most valuable race at Roscommon on Monday evening.

The E25,000 contest has attracted a nine-strong field and few can be ruled out with confidence.

Following creditable placed efforts at Navan and the Curragh respectively, the application of a visor helped the Willie McCreery-trained Thiswaycadeaux open her account for the campaign at Sligo three weeks ago and plenty will fancy her to follow up.

The four-year-old has been raised 4lb for that second career success, but that rise is negated by the capable 7lb claimer Nathan Crosse.

Other contenders include Joseph O’Brien's Wisdom Mind who was far from disgraced when a close-up fourth in a valuable handicap at the Curragh on Guineas weekend, and Artistic Melody who represents the formidable combination of trainer Ger Lyons and champion jockey Colin Keane.

The E20,000 Foran Equine Irish EBF Auction Maiden, which opens the eight-race card, is arguably an even trickier puzzle to solve, with very little to go on in terms of worthwhile form.

Having finished second twice from three starts, Mark McNiff's Engles Rock undoubtedly sets the standard.

The Damian English-trained Dance Alone was a good winner at Leopardstown on Thursday and must have every chance of defying a 6lb penalty and top-weight as he turns out just four days later for division one of the Ladies Day At Roscommon On Monday, 9th July, 2018 Handicap.

Recent Listowel victor Intense Starlet may give him most to think about.

The 80-rated Lethal Power bids to record his first win in the Connaughton Auctioneer's Maiden.

Johnny Murtagh 's charge perhaps has most to fear from the Jim Bolger-trained Dream Focus who has been beaten eight and seven lengths on his first two starts, but it would be no surprise to see him raise his game significantly now he is stepped up in trip on a sounder surface. Schoolboy Error trained by Shane Nolan, has won his last two starts at Dundalk and switches to the grass for his hat-trick bid in the concluding Roscommon Racecourse Handicap.
