Spotlight :
Strike-rate of 1-10 over both hurdles and fences; gave it a good go from the front in a 2m6f handicap chase at Punchestown last time (heavy) and the recent rain has done her prospects no harm; considered.

|
Spotlight :
Lightly raced maiden hurdle winner who also won a point; not beaten far in her first two runs over fences and stepping up to 3m from 2m4f should benefit, and help her jumping; likely improver.

11lb lower when winning by 3l over 2m6f here in December and new mark looks an issue after last time; may improve for first-time cheekpieces.

|
Spotlight :
Only career win came in this race two years ago and he made a timely return to form when a front-running second over 2m7f here ten days back, going down to an in-form opponent; 3lb wrong but goes on all ground and should be in the mix.

Off since November but was running well back then over hurdles and fences; handicapped to be competitive once more but likes good ground so could have done without the recent rain.

Spotlight :
Rated lower over fences (0-9) than hurdles and she was a close fourth of 16 in that latter discipline at Leopardstown 20 days ago (3m, yielding); also made the frame in her final chase; 3lb out of the handicap but she's not without hope.

Spotlight :
Beat The Wallpark for his maiden hurdle win and added a handicap chase at Kilbeggan last August (3m1f); probably true that he now needs further than the 2m4f he ran over last time and Patrick O'Brien takes off 7lb.

Spotlight :
Reportedly lame when pulling up last time; consistent in the main and a repeat of his previous placed efforts (3m/2m5f) wouldn't see him too far away.

Spotlight :
Has done a lot of his racing at Fairyhouse, the scene of four of his five wins; goes on all ground but he's struggled badly since contesting last season's Irish Grand National, albeit twice over hurdles and last time on a foray to Britain.

Spotlight :
Lightly raced since his last win in late 2023, in a 3m heavy-ground handicap chase at Fairyhouse; pulled up back over fences at Thurles in December and now returns from another break; has questions to answer.

Three-time chase winner; she was returning from a long absence when beaten 20l into fourth over 2m7f here ten days ago and this is a quick turnaround.
