Spotlight: Showed ability fourth in a heavy ground maiden hurdle at this venue in February (reportedly coughed post race); comes into the reckoning on the evidence of his staying-on run in the final of the Adare Manor Opportunity Series at the festival meeting; enough stamina in the pedigree to encourage support.

Spotlight: Versatile sort, though has a better strike rate on the Flat; won over a shorter trip here last winter; good run behind the in-form Digby at Ballinrobe on latest; strong contender for in-form stable.

Spotlight: Holding his form since winning over 2m6f at Down Royal in April; solid placed efforts on his last two starts at Killarney and Listowel.

Spotlight: Not seen since finishing second in a handicap chase at this venue last October; 0-7 over hurdles placed four times; may find this too demanding on return.

Spotlight: Runner-up on all three completed starts since 2m4f Cork win on soft ground last December; has missed several engagements because of ground concerns, though his form indicates versatility; could be in the mix.

Spotlight: Progressive staying handicapper early this year, winning at this venue (soft) and career-best over 3m at Leopardstown in March (yielding); below best in C&D novice afterwards and early faller back in handicap company at the festival here; kept on from off the pace when third over 3m at Wexford.

Spotlight: Made mistakes and finished lame when fourth in a 20-runner contest at Fairyhouse in April; that was a decent effort in the circumstances; each-way chance.

Spotlight: Gowran maiden win was gained over 2m; fair form at around 2m3f in a valuable conditions race here at the festival; tackles a new trip now; rider's claim helps to reduce his big burden.

Spotlight: Got off the mark at the seventh attempt over hurdles in Fairyhouse handicap in February (2m4f, soft); raised 6lb for that and has been off since; any easing in the ground would probably help.

Spotlight: 3-21 over hurdles, all three wins coming for Declan Queally; has run well in defeat for this yard, including a 3l third of 11 in a mares' handicap over 2m6f at Ballinrobe last autumn; has to bounce back from a disappointing run at the same venue recently.

Spotlight: Won on Flat in Britain and over hurdles in April last year for Gavin Cromwell in a 2m1f Bellewstown handicap; no show on yard debut on the Flat at Navan in April and failed to make a major impact in a recent 2m1f conditions hurdle at Wexford; has run well at up to 2m4f,

Spotlight: Won a maiden hurdle at Limerick in November; fourth in a rated event at the same track in December; lack of a recent run could be a drawback.

Spotlight: 2-22 over hurdles; last win came at Wexford in August 2023; ran only three times last year; struggled at Killarney on first 2025 run

Spotlight: Won twice over 2m5f at Limerick late last year faded from the last over 3m at the same venue in December on his most recent start.

Spotlight: Useful and versatile staying type, winner of eight races including three over hurdles; getting on in years now, and needs to step up from last month's Kilbeggan run.

Spotlight: Placed in three handicap chases during March/April; makes some appeal off lower mark here; only one pound out of the handicap, 7lb claimer aboard.

Spotlight: Back over hurdles now after an unrewarding spell over fences; hard to make a case for him; trainer appears to have a better chance with Howdoyalikeherhome.

Spotlight: Three hurdle wins have all been at 3m+ on both good and soft, including at Listowel festival in 2023; pulled up over fences at Down Royal on only 2024 start; long absence to overcome.
