Spotlight: Had been below her best in first two starts this term but came back to life when not getting the best of runs in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham; same rider aboard; has to be on the shortlist.

Spotlight: Promising runner-up on sole French start; pitched into Grade 1s first two starts for this yard; was disappointing in a Naas maiden last time but is capable of a lot better; jockey booking takes the eye so not ruled out; check the market.

Spotlight: Won a 2m maiden hurdle here and was second in a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse since; however, he has to rebound from a poor handicap run last time.

Spotlight: Has been solid in defeat in three maiden hurdles lately from 2m-2m4f; could go well on handicap bow; watch the market.

Spotlight: Won a Listed handicap at Limerick over 2m on testing ground buty was poor behind a stablemate over 2m4f at Cheltenham; has to rebound.

Spotlight: Was runner-up in a Grade 2 novice over 2m7f at Limerick but did win his maiden over this trip at Navan; had an excuse (coughing) last time; hood added; considered.

Spotlight: Maiden hurdle winner has been mostly consistent in defeat in handicaps; has been slowly dropping in the weights and cheekpieces may help eke out more.

Spotlight: Bumper winner showed improved form to run away with a 2m Navan maiden hurdle last time on heavy; raised 7lb and this is tougher but is going the right way.

Spotlight: Better known as a chaser but has shown smart hurdles form in the past; would have a squeak if back in top form off a lower hurdle mark.

Spotlight: Was a close second in a Grade 3 novice at Thurles but not as good at Cheltenham in the Martin Pipe; however, has a shout if he can bounce back; considered.

Spotlight: Won a Killarney novice hurdle and second (beaten 7.5l) in a Down Royal handicap, both over 2m1f last autumn; has a chance if ready after a break.

Spotlight: Maiden hurdle winner ran well in three handicaps last autumn from 2m-2m4f; has to find more on his return in this tough race.

Spotlight: Has been mostly over fences without success this season; posted a solid run back to hurdles over this trip at Naas last time; needs more in a stronger race.

Spotlight: Is just 1-27 over hurdles and was well beaten here last time after a break; can improve on that but plenty others preferred.

Spotlight: Won a Grade 3 novice hurdle (3m) here in December 2024; good chase run two starts back before falling last time; might find this trip too sharp.

Spotlight: Dual hurdle winner last year, from 2m-2m4f; posted a decent Flat run last time at the Curragh; is ground-versatile and could run well on handicap bow.

Spotlight: Was in great form last season, running a cracker in the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham; however, he has been poor in two runs this term and could find this trip sharp.

Spotlight: Posted a decent run in the Lartigue at Listowel on his last hurdle start; had a pipe-opener on the Flat at Dundalk lately; can be involved.

Spotlight: Won handicaps here and at Clonmel over shorter last autumn before a poor run on testing ground at Punchestown; has a squeak if ready after break.
