Spotlight: Runner-up in a point and a bumper; well backed when easily got off the mark over hurdles in a C&D novice handicap two weeks ago; raised 14lb for that but has to be respected again.

Spotlight: Well beaten on sole point start and just a hint of promise in three maiden hurdles; a similar effort on handicap debut over C&D when beaten 15l off this mark by Crescent Moon; needs plenty of improvement but owner's retained rider is aboard.

Spotlight: Three-time Flat winner can be a tricky customer but deservedly got off the mark over hurdles when winning a 2m Gowran maiden easily; a fine third on the Flat over 1m4f since; this trip is a question but a chance if staying.

Spotlight: Has displayed uneven form in six hurdle starts but best effort came over a similar trip to this at Punchestown last time; ran in snatches then in first-time cheekpieces and coughed post-race; a chance if at best with headgear left on.

Spotlight: Bumper winner is yet to score over hurdles but several decent runs including over 3m at this course last time; this trip is fine and she can improve from that so is noted.

Spotlight: Improving sort won a Navan handicap over this trip before taking a 2m novice at this course, both on soft; fell early on back at the former course since; has had time to recover so one to consider.

Spotlight: Point and bumper winner hasn't got close to that level over hurdles in four maidens up to this trip; is likely capable of better now in handicaps and any market support would be significant.

Spotlight: Point winner won a novice hurdle at Chepstow earlier in the season and has been solid in defeat the last thrice in similar company including over this trip; UK challenger should be involved.

Spotlight: Got off the mark when winning a C&D handicap on New Year's Day and a solid effort over 2m2f at Naas since; up another 4lb but shouldn't be far away again.

Spotlight: Dual Flat winner ran well in that sphere at the Curragh last month; hasn't shown a lot in four hurdle starts including a handicap.

Spotlight: Point winner took a Wexford maiden hurdle over this trip last summer and won handicaps at Punchestown (2m4f) and Leopardstown (3m) over the winter/spring; not at her best back at Wexford last time but is the type to rebound.

Spotlight: Sole win was in a beginners' chase back in 2022 and is 0-20 over hurdles; his experience will be a help but others are more progressive.

Spotlight: Maiden whose best run in four hurdle starts came in a Navan maiden last time over this trip after 55 days off; should be fitter today and yard amongst the winners so is considered on handicap bow.

Spotlight: Lightly-raced; won a Sligo maiden hurdle over this trip on second hurdle start but disappointed next time in a Navan handicap; will have to be ready after his absence.

Spotlight: Flat winner won a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle over 2m3f last summer; a solid fourth to an improving type in a Wexford novice next time; handles this ground and a shout if ready on return.

Spotlight: Won a 2m Wexford maiden hurdle last summer and some solid efforts in defeat since; beaten 10l over 2m5f at Ballinrobe last time; needs more.

Spotlight: Yet to score in 12 hurdle starts but some decent efforts; poor in a handicap and maiden the last twice and cheekpieces need to work.

Spotlight: Won a point in May 2024 but has been poor in three maiden hurdles over 2m; steps up in trip on return for handicap debut; surely capable of better so isn't ignored even 1lb out of the handicap; watch market.

Spotlight: A hint of ability in three maiden hurdles but was beaten 15l on handicap debut last time; needs loads of improvement up in trip.
