Spotlight: High-class jumper; third in the Champion Hurdle in 2023; better hurdler than chaser, though managed a fine third in last year's Galway Plate; now has his first Flat run since 2020 maiden win over 1m4f at Fairyhouse; potentially well treated.

Spotlight: Won a 1m6f Navan handicap last year and second over 1m4f at the Listowel festival; turned into a useful hurdler over the winter and was runner-up in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham; should be suited by this step up in trip after Navan fourth over 1m4f that matches him closely with The Banger Doyle and Mo Chille Mar.

Spotlight: Dual-purpose performer; won a 1m6f course maiden last July, beating The Banger Doyle; also won twice over hurdles last summer; respectable eighth in Martin Pipe before third of six in 1m6f Navan handicap; the trainer also runs Zanahiyr.

Spotlight: Bumper and three-time chase winner is a maiden over hurdles and on the Flat; very little between him and Robbies Rock on Tipperary running, with Mo Chille Mar on their heels.

Spotlight: 2022 Kerry National winner; won a staying handicap on the Flat at Galway last July; won the La Touche at Punchestown 12 days ago; sufficiently versatile to merit consideration.

Spotlight: Middle-distance course winner last season; closely matched with The Banger Doyle and Robbies Rock on running over 1m4f at Navan, that pair have superior staying credentials.

Spotlight: Should be better for a recent hurdles start; bidding for a widely spaced Flat hat-trick, won a 1m6f handicap at the 2023 Galway festival, and also successful at Listowel on only Flat start last season.

Spotlight: Below his best in two further AW runs since beating Jerandme handsomely at Dundalk in January; 4-13 on turf and has to be respected on account of 2-2 record at this venue.

Spotlight: Fit from hurdling; first run on the Flat since fifth of 16 in the 2023 Naas November Handicap; others preferred.

Spotlight: Three-time Flat winner; spent the winter over jumps; of some interest here after charity race win at Punchestown.

Spotlight: 3-22 on Flat and placed nine times; stays well but has been off for a long time and faces tough opposition here.

Spotlight: Came back to form over staying trips last summer, winning at Limerick and Clonmel over 2m1f; solid third at Dundalk three months ago; suited by good ground.

Spotlight: Two 1m4f wins in Germany and Listed-placed over 2m; interesting recruit for Tony Martin but probably best watched here.

Spotlight: Veteran who has been a notably versatile type; has shown he retains ability in a four-race spell at Dundalk after a long absence.

Spotlight: Promising novice hurdler in 2023 and won two novice chases last May/June; 3-17 on Flat; respectable eighth of 24 in last season's Cesarewitch.
