Spotlight: Bumper winner last June; gained first hurdles win in good style at Ballinrobe (2m6f, good) on latest; the third has since won over fences; up 7lb but step up in trip is no problem; should go well.

Spotlight: Best form is over around 2m4f, including when runner-up in Down Royal handicap in March; two poor efforts followed but ran into a solid fifth over 3m at Punchestown last month and could build on that.

Spotlight: Dual hurdles winner for Arthur Moore; something amiss on final run for the yard at Sligo when weakening with a circuit to race; first run for Gordon Elliott; market will reveal expectations; blinkers.

Spotlight: Best maiden effort when runner-up at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) last August; three runs for next yard offered little; starts out for Claire O'Connell now with plenty to prove.

Spotlight: Shaped with promise in maidens but serious jumping issues evident on handicap debut at Clonmel on return in May; still early days for top yard but will need to cut out the mistakes; this trip may help.

Spotlight: Placed in two of three starts in bumpers; chased home the progressive Raise You Up at Limerick on hurdles debut; fortunate victory on third hurdles start when left in the lead at final flight at Listowel (20.5f, good to yielding) in May; first try at this trip but fair opening mark; considered.

Spotlight: Seven-time winner, including four over fences; made all to win Wexford handicap chase last August; runner-up in the 4m1f La Touche Cup after a break at Punchestown in May; struggled off this sort of mark when last seen hurdling.

Spotlight: Placed in two of three point-to-point starts; midfield in first two maidens before runner-up at Tramore (2m6f, good) on latest; workable opening mark and is high on the shortlist.

Spotlight: Dual-purpose; won at Sligo (17.5f, good) on handicap hurdle debut last July; made the frame on the Flat a couple of times this year; unseated rider at the first when joint-favourite at Downpatrick last month; can't be ruled out for local trainer but big question marks over this trip.

Spotlight: Hurdles/chase winner ran his best race in some time when never-nearer fifth of 12 at Kilbeggan (24.5f, good to yielding) 19 days ago; fairly treated on the pick of his hurdles form; each-way contender.

Spotlight: His three hurdle wins came at Fairyhouse on good ground at 2m4f-3m but nothing since late 2024; some cracking runs in defeat though, including when third off 108 at Cork (3m) in April; tailed off in this race last year.

Spotlight: Punchestown bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins; 150-1 and tailed off on debut for this yard in Grade 3 Red Mills Hurdle at Gowran in February; well beaten in Roscommon handicap last month; cheekpieces.

Spotlight: Dual-purpose performer is 3-21 over hurdles with all three gained in an eight-day period in August last year; has been ticking over nicely on the Flat without winning of late; could make his presence felt.

Spotlight: Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner (24.5f, good to yielding) last summer; hasn't been in good form over fences of late, lacking fluency in the jumping department; handicap hurdle debut.

Spotlight: Lightly raced since winning back-to-back 2m4f handicaps in 2023; encouraging comeback run at Kilbeggan but pulled up on latest at Punchestown; the jury is out.
