Spotlight: Won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in September; scored over 1m4f at Dundalk on his AW debut; underlined his rate of improvement when landing a valuable Fairyhouse handicap at the main expense of Bowensonfire who endorsed the form on Saturday's card; may improve again up in trip now.

Spotlight: 151-rated chaser; flopped when favourite for this race last season; made a promising return at Navan last month; stable in superb form; could now exploit his 19lb lower hurdles rating.

Spotlight: Won a maiden hurdle at Cork late last year and held her form well thereafter; absent since second in a conditions race at Punchestown in April; generally reliable.

Spotlight: Has failed to live up to early promise over hurdles but could redeem himself this term; fit from a Flat campaign that ended with Cesarewitch third; lends weight to the yard's powerful challenge.

Spotlight: Decent form over fences; ran well over hurdles at the Punchestown festival, not at his best in valuable handicap chases since then; pulled up in the Paddy Power Gold Cup last time.

Spotlight: Point/bumper winner; easy winner of 2m4f maiden hurdle at Down Royal last Christmas; no problem with the shorter distance (2m1f) when beating the favourite Sixandahalf in the Grade 2 mares' novice at Cheltenham; failed to reproduce that form in 2m4f Grade 1 mares' event in April; may reverse Fairyhouse seasonal debut form with Far Eadrainn.

Spotlight: Bumper winner; solid form in maiden hurdles last winter, including second to the smart Koktail Divin over 2m4f here; 2m6f maiden winner at Punchestown last time; cheekpieces added now.

Spotlight: French AQPS winner; initially disappointing over hurdles when coming to Ireland; improved in the spring, winning a Fairyhouse novice handicap; later runner-up at Killarney and Ballinrobe; raised 8lb for Listowel success; fourth to Zillow at Fairyhouse off this mark; tackles a new trip now.

Spotlight: Useful juvenile last season; has failed to match his best form in two outings this term, but may be helped by this step up in trip.

Spotlight: Won a 2m4f Clonmel maiden in April on good-to-yielding; not disgraced in a good race at Punchestown later that month (bad mistake three out); appeared not to stay 3m at Cork; was getting a stone when upstaging Air Of Entitlement at Fairyhouse last month; not sure to uphold form now.

Spotlight: Galway specialist, four of his five Flat wins and both hurdle wins have come at that venue; probably vulnerable here in a highly competitive handicap.

Spotlight: Grade 2 juvenile winner last season; this will be his first run since Royal Ascot; stable has a strong hand; Zillow and Bunting look more likely.

Spotlight: Showed improved form in winning the Red Mills Auction Final over 2m3f at the Punchestown festival; faced a tough task in a conditions race at Limerick last time; should be more at home here.

Spotlight: Smart hurdler at his best; often highly tried; hard to fancy with big burden; blinkered for the first time now relatively late in his career, though not a great deal of mileage on the clock.

Spotlight: Needs to step up considerably on the form he has shown in four handicap outings since May.

Spotlight: Grade 2 winner and runner-up in a Grade 1 in his prime; Grade 3-winning novice chaser last season; probably vulnerable now as 11th birthday approaches; rider's 7lb claim is the main positive.
