Spotlight :
2m4f maiden hurdle winner in April 2023; 0-5 over fences but produced his best effort yet on latest at Naas in January (2m4f, soft); kept on nicely for second that day, is just 1lb higher now and he ran well in a 3m1f handicap hurdle at this venue in December 2023; interesting.

Spotlight :
Two time C&D winner off 109 in December on yielding and off 116 last month on soft to heavy; held by Banjaxed on Fairyhouse running in January but clearly likes it here and a 4lb rise for that last win doesn't seem too harsh; could go well if as effective on this better ground.

Gained his first win in a Listed handicap chase over 20.5f (heavy) here earlier this month (Global Export 9l behind); raised 6lb for that 3l win; previously ran well over C&D when a 4.25l third behind Verdant Place and is now 2lb worse off with that rival; place claims.

131 rated hurdler has yet to reach the same heights over fences; produced his best effort in this sphere on latest when beaten 6l behind Golden Joy at Leopardstown (2m1f) earlier this month; the step up in trip will suit and the ground is fine but this looks a tough task on handicap chase debut.

One of two for yard; maiden hurdle winner over 2m7f on heavy at Fairyhouse in December 2023; best chase effort came on his chase debut when 11l behind Champ Kiely in a beginners at Fairyhouse (21.5f, yielding to soft); not as good since and now makes his handicap debut in first time cheekpieces; probably best watched.

Notched up back to back handicap chase wins at Kilbeggan and Punchestown last June; has won at this trip over hurdles and goes on any ground; pleasing return to action in a Grade 3 mares hurdle at Punchestown behind Jade De Grugy last month; will need a career best off this mark but that's not impossible; each way claims.

On a hat-trick after wins at Naas (2m, yielding) off 98 and Clonmel (17.5f, soft) off 109; up another 11lb now and pitched into a deeper race over a longer trip on different ground; a bit to prove but clearly in good heart and can't be totally dismissed.

Spotlight :
Second runner for yard and deserted by Blackmore; won a 4yo hurdle on final start in France; mild promise in first two novice chases then third in a novice handicap off this mark at Clonmel (16.5f, soft) last month; unproven over this far and probably best watched unless strong in the betting.

Spotlight :
One of two for yard; progressive hurdler last season; jumping errors have held him back over the bigger obstacles so far, though he did put in a slightly better round of jumping on latest at Naas two weeks ago; not sure the step up to this trip will suit and others appeal more.

Winning hurdler is 0-10 in chases but has run well in defeat on many occasions; beaten by narrow margins in three of last four starts, including in handicap chases at Carlisle the last twice over 2m (soft) off 120 and 2m5f (good) off 122; same mark here and should be on the premises again.

Perth maiden hurdle winner is 1-6 over fences; won a 2m5f beginners at Cork in December; produced another solid effort in a rated novice chase latest at Fairyhouse (4.75l ahead of Verdant Place); weighted to uphold that form but most of his best form is going right-handed.

Spotlight :
Second runner for yard; Downpatrick maiden hurdle winner is 0-5 in this sphere; shaped okay in a couple of beginners' chases but no impact in two handicap chases, though he did scope dirty after the first one; can't be totally discounted in first time tongue tie given the form of his yard but others have stronger claims.

Spotlight :
Three-time winning hurdler is 0-6 in chases but has placed in five of those runs; proved no match for Hillsdale on latest but could get closer to that rival over this longer trip (placed over 24.5f over hurdles); his rider's 5lb claim negates the fact that he is 3lb out of the handicap; could go well at a price.

Flat and maiden hurdle winner is 1-6 over fences; that win came at Down Royal's Christmas meeting in a beginners'; finished 9l behind Prince Palace over 20.5f here on latest; better off at weights now and could reverse the form on this better ground if staying the trip; not without a chance.

1-7 over fences, the win coming in a Kilbeggan beginners' chase in May last year; has finished third the last twice but was well-beaten on both occasions; dropped another 1lb to 115 but needs more to feature in this.
