Spotlight :
Point-to-point winner; won a 3m hunters chase on his Rules' debut here in December on nice ground; not as good on soft the last twice but the return to this venue and good ground offer hope of a revival; lost a shoe in the Tetratema at Gowran nine days ago.

Spotlight :
5-13 in point-to-points; won a hunters chase at this venue over 2m7f (good) last May; got to within 2l of Carnfunnock at Kirkistown last month and he ran well in the St James's Place at Cheltenham on Friday; this trip may be a shade sharp but he has leading form claims.

Spotlight :
Got off the mark at the seventh attempt in point-to-points on good to yielding ground at Kirkistown last month; was 2.25l behind Ballyphilip in a 2m7f hunters chase on good ground here last May; this trip may be on the sharp side for him but he should be staying on at the finish.

Spotlight :
Promise in a pair of point-to-points at Cragmore and Lisronagh; from a good family, in good hands, top rider booked and his pedigree suggests that he could improve plenty for this better ground; interesting Rules' debutant.

2-10 in point-to-points; both wins came on easy ground but he has run well on good; finished 4.75l behind Ballyphilip in a hunters chase here in May last year; place claims in first-time hood.

Spotlight :
1-5 in point-to-points, that win coming in February 2023; went close in a 2m5f hunters chase at Clonmel in January 2024 on heavy; best form has come on testing ground so good ground is a concern; others preferred.

Spotlight :
1-8 in point-to-points for Peter Croke, the win coming on his last start at Boulta (3m, yielding); has since joined Patrick Griffin; others have stronger form claims and he is probably best watched.

Spotlight :
A mixed bag in point-to-points; failed to complete four of his seven starts in that sphere but has also shown ability, such as a 2.5l second at Turtulla on his penultimate start; unseated at Punchestown latest; probably best watched in his first hunters chase.
