Spotlight :
Progressive staying handicap hurdler last season with two wins at Limerick on heavy; handicapper seemed to catch up with him twice afterwards and now reverts to fences on reappearance off a potentially lenient mark (16lb below hurdles mark).

Spotlight :
Hasn't won since 2m handicap hurdle win here in August 2022 but comes here in good form in handicap chases, runner-up last three starts on good ground at Gowran and Clonmel (twice); respected but ground could have gone against him.

Spotlight :
Consistent over hurdles lately, getting off the mark over 3m at Wexford (soft) although well held off revised mark in similar contest since; fell on handicap chase debut at Limerick back in March so will need to jump much better here but 7lb lower chase mark makes him interesting.

Just 1-26 over hurdles, with that win coming at Cork over 2m (soft-to-heavy); back to form of late when placed at both Limerick and Cork on good ground and now makes chase debut.

Modest Flat handicapper but improvement on 13th start over hurdles when winning 2m4f Fairyhouse amateur handicap a fortnight ago (good); straight into handicap company on chase debut and heavy ground a concern.

Dual hurdle winner on soft is 0-5 chasing and proving expensive to follow; jumping becoming an issue and needs to improve but remains well handicapped.

Hasn't won since 2021, a dead-heat success over hurdles; respectable runs at Killarney and Galway since returning last month but more needed to play a major role here.

Standout run from eight attempts chasing when second in 3m Navan handicap on testing ground back in January; last month's Galway run should have brought him on so don't rule out.

Second reserve; sole win came on the Flat in 2022; promising fourth over fences at Gowran last month and didn't get much luck in running at Clonmel last time; don't dismiss entirely.
