Spotlight :
Won a nursery at Down Royal off 63 early this month; appeared to face a stiff task in a rated race at Listowel on Tuesday and emerged with much credit in finishing second to the Aidan O'Brien-trained Medici Venus with a short-priced stablemate behind; big chance providing this does not come too soon.

Run to a similar level of form on her first three starts; won a Fairyhouse claimer on Monday in the style of an improving filly, well in command in the closing stages; merits respect on handicap debut.

Useful form in maidens; already had this rating before his Leopardstown win against 17 rivals; had first-time cheekpieces then; should be competitive if handling ease in the ground.

Unconvincing form in maidens; seemed to find 6f too short at Cork; top rider aboard but the yard may have a better chance with the apprentice-ridden The Marty Party.

Handed a 4lb rise for 1m Naas win; the shorter trip may be a bigger issue than weight; faces a renewal of Naas rivalry with third-placed Ottoman.

Has kept good company in maidens, most notably events won by Henri Matisse and Hotazhell; feasible that he can find his level in handicaps off this mark

Roscommon fourth in testing conditions was a step in the right direction; may improve with cheekpieces fitted.

Minor promise in maidens; fair fourth over 6f on handicap debut; kept on for third behind Mykonian Odyssey over 1m at Naas, shorter trip may not be ideal.

Does not appeal as being attractively handicapped, though the drop from 1m to 7f may help his cause; did not seem to see out the mile here or at Punchestown.
