Spotlight :
French 2m2f hurdle winner on heavy; tame debut chasing effort when pulled up behind Ballyburn at Punchestown in November; made no impression on handicap hurdle debut at Fairyhouse last month but that was his first run in 150 days; top yard and the choice of Paul Townend; better expected here.

Won 2m3f maiden hurdle and fourth in 2m Grade 1 later in December; tailed off in Grade 1 next time at Leopardstown and same story in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham; well beaten when a faller at the last at Ayr; 130-rated hurdler could be a different propositon on chase debut but Townend prefers Gold Dancer.

126-rated hurdler won Listowel maiden on this sort of ground; sent off favourite on chasing debut at Leopardstown when falling at the last; looked booked for second at the time; below that level at Wexford when just behind Harsh.

Winning hurdler is 0-8 over fences and rated 127; best efforts in this sphere a 5.5l second in Ballinrobe beginners' (2m1f, yielding) last May and 6.25l third behind Mirazur West (Harsh second) at Cork on latest; not discounted.

Spotlight :
Trainer found the key to him last summer over hurdles when winning at Downpatrick and Galway; disappointed off career-high mark at Gowran but good run when last seen at Punchestown over 3m; this trip is probably an inadequate test on chase debut.

Spotlight :
Dual hurdles winner has hit the frame in three of his four chase starts at trips ranging from 2m4f-23.5f; likely pace angle but this trip looks far too short and he has a 232-day absence to overcome.
