Spotlight: French recruit won 2m maiden in French provinces (soft) before joining top jumps yard; sent off favourite for novice hurdle at Galway summer festival on sole start for Willie Mullins when beaten 11l into fourth by smart winner; jumped nicely there; major player if ready to do himself justice on back of big absence.

Spotlight: Seriously impressive when winning sole point in 2023; bumped into The Big Westerner on jumping debut but disappointing since; this is weaker than the maiden hurdles he has been contesting but has questions to answer; step up in trip should suit.

Spotlight: Solid enough form in bumpers and maiden hurdles; made a few crucial errors when second in Clonmel maiden hurdle (2m4f, good/yielding) when last seen in October; rated 113 and that puts him right in the mix here if ready to rock on the back of 247-day absence.

Spotlight: Newcomer; Kapgarde gelding who cost EUR72,000 as a 3yo; dam French 2m2f chase winner; in superb hands; interesting on debut.

Spotlight: Fourth in a pair of maiden hurdles at Tramore and Wexford before switching to bumpers; ran well enough at Kilbeggan last time; place prospects here.

Spotlight: Point winner who made an early mistake and was well beaten at Listowel last weekend; hard to fancy.

Spotlight: Court Cave gelding who is a half-brother to Grade 1 winner Champ Kiely; never involved at Killarney last month, but no surprise should he improve upon that here; keep an eye on the market.

Spotlight: Newcomer; Cannock Chase filly whose dam was well beaten both starts but was a half-sister to 1m6f/2m winner Wishing Well; watching brief advised.

Spotlight: Stayed on best to land a maiden point at Necarne last month, but well beaten since in a winner of one at Ballingarry; in good hands but best watched.

Spotlight: Placed in a few points but pulled-up in that sphere last time; Rules debut; looks elsewhere.

Spotlight: Her dam was a star; runner-up in Fairyhouse bumper on debut; bit disappointing since; cheekpieces on for hurdles bow; others preferred.

Spotlight: Nearer last than first in both bumper outings; too much on his plate here.

Spotlight: Newcomer; second runner for the stable; Churchill filly; half-sister to 7f winner Ararat; might need this experience.

Spotlight: Getaway gelding who is a brother to useful 2m-3m hurdle/chase winner Masters Legacy; first reserve.

Spotlight: Made the early running before dropping away tamely at Listowel last weekend; unlikely to be involved at the business end of this.

Spotlight: Has shown nothing to suggest he can get involved here; made mistakes at Killarney when last seen.

Spotlight: Made plenty of mistakes before being pulled-up on sole point outing; best watched.

Spotlight: Well beaten when coming down at the last in Tipperary maiden hurdle last time; others make far more appeal.

Spotlight: Neither display to date would get you excited about his prospects here; outsider with little chance it seems.

Spotlight: Well held in both point outings; best watched on first racecourse appearance.

Spotlight: Never sighted before being pulled-up at Tramore eight days ago; hard to fancy now.
