Spotlight: Point winner; maiden form included a second to Sysko at Punchestown in June; had plenty to spare when scoring on his handicap debut over an extended 2m3f at Punchestown; should have no trouble with this trip.

Spotlight: Won the 2024 Grand National Trial at Haydock; fine effort in third behind Stuzzikini in last season's Troytown and went one place better in this year's edition of the big Navan handicap chase; 143-rated chaser competes from a tempting 118 here, with Eoin Staples claiming a very valuable 7lb; has run only three times over hurdles; potentially well handicapped.

Spotlight: Second on hurdles debut at Kilbeggan (2m3f, gd-yld) after a point-to-point fall and two modest bumper efforts; took another step in the right direction when winning a 2m5f Navan maiden in September; beaten favourite at same venue last time; less exposed than most here; hard to assess, Paul Townend aboard.

Spotlight: Made a winning debut in 2m2f Down Royal maiden in May; backed that up with 2m1f Punchestown novice win following month; made a few little errors at Galway; unseated two out on handicap debut at Bellewstown; looked ready for a step up to a trip such as this when keeping on for fifth at Fairyhouse.

Spotlight: 2m maiden winner on Flat in France at three; ran only once in 2024; won a 2m3f Punchestown maiden in June (gd-yld); came up short when last of seven in a Listed hurdle at Galway; has made the frame in both handicap attempts at 2m4f; fair chance of staying this far.

Spotlight: 150-rated chaser with two Grade 1 seconds to his name, beaten by Impaire Et Passe at Limerick and by Caldwell Potter at Aintree; 16lb lower over hurdles; should be better for a Fairyhouse outing; has to reverse form with fifth-placed Timeless Treaty.

Spotlight: Off for a long spell after winning a 2m6f novice handicap hurdle at Down Royal 19 months ago; well enough placed before fading from the last on his return at Listowel; tendency to make mistakes resurfaced when third over 3m at Clonmel; plenty to prove after flop when favourite for the Punchestown qualifier; Millstream Lady second then.

Spotlight: Failed to prosper in Britain; won his first four races for this stable and ran well again when fourth in a handicap chase at Punchestown before regaining the winning thread at Haydock; gets in here on a handy weight, respected.

Spotlight: In-form mare; won a 2m6f Killarney handicap in August before finishing third over 2m4f at the Listowel festival; stayed well when landing a five-runner Listed mares' event at Limerick; maintained her rate of progress with second in a similar race (Intent Approach, beaten favourite) on latest; good 7lb claimer

Spotlight: Galway bumper winner; made winning hurdles debut in 2m3f Cork mares maiden in May; beaten favourite in two of her three subsequent races; found 2m1f inadequate on latest; relatively unexposed.

Spotlight: Career highlight in winning the 2023 Kerry National; mixed form since then; showed he is in good shape with a Punchestown cross-country win; an adaptable sort but may find a few of his younger rivals too lively here.

Spotlight: Last season's Kim Muir winner; has decent hurdles form and the trip will not be an issue; however, he may need this on his seasonal debut.

Spotlight: Flat winner in France; maiden hurdle win was gained over 2m3f; failed to run to expectations over 2m at Navan last time; hard to be sure this trip will suit.

Spotlight: Two runs over fences since down the field behind Duke Silver at Listowel; up against it unless the addition of a tongue-tie makes a big difference.

Spotlight: Reverted from chasing/Flat to run in a similar race last time, tailed off then; makes no appeal in a race in which his trainer has more attractive candidates.

Spotlight: Won over 3m at Listowel despite an untidy round of jumping; poor at Punchestown in October, leaving others with much more obvious claims.

Spotlight: Not much mileage on the clock; stays well as he showed when winning a 3m maiden at Limerick in April; this company may prove too demanding.

Spotlight: Has won twice over hurdles at Wexford, notably final start last term in 3m novice in April (yielding), relishing stamina test; soundly beaten twice this term; new headgear combination.

Spotlight: Ran a fine race when fifth in a 25-runner handicap at last season's Punchestown festival; has a bit to find with Timeless Treaty and Jordans on Navan running; fitness likely to be more advanced; could go well at a decent price.

Spotlight: Has won only once from 20 starts over hurdles; no encouragement from his 2025 form.
