Spotlight: C&D winner; pulled out a career best to win at Leopardstown 16 days ago; lightly-raced for this yard but a 7lb rise may find him out back on quicker ground.

Spotlight: Stayed on well to score over 1m1f at Leopardstown earlier this month, suggesting the step back up in trip could suit and that form is working out; 7lb rise to cope with but his jockey, Nicola Burns (claiming 7lb) has been amongst the winners over the last fortnight.

Spotlight: Beaten roughly 3l by Masoun at Leopardstown 16 days ago and he's an AW specialist (7-33 on AW, 0-9 on turf) whose best efforts have come over shorter trips; others more convincing.

Spotlight: 10-race maiden; doesn't look well treated on any recent form and probably wants a bit more cut in the ground than what is likely here.

Spotlight: Recorded first turf win in Tipperary claimer and ran to a similar level back in a handicap when fourth behind Masoun and Final Voyage at Leopardstown 16 days ago; handles good ground but best efforts have come in softer conditions.

Spotlight: Gained first win since 2022 at Fairyhouse in September and has held his form fairly well so far this term; majority of his best efforts have come with plenty of cut in the ground though.

Spotlight: Won over this trip for James Ferguson and arrives on the back of a placed maiden hurdle effort; first Flat run for new yard and will need a career best, particularly from stall 14.

Spotlight: Off the mark at the 13th attempt for this rider at Gowran last month; in deeper here and he's up 8lb but shaped like the step up in trip could yield improvement.

Spotlight: Low-key effort behind a few of these at Leopardstown earlier this month but return to quicker ground may help and she's back on her last winning mark (also went close off 77 in Clonmel handicap in September); Neve Bennett who claims 7lb has ridden her fair share of winners; could go well.

Spotlight: Pulled up after a very slow start at Leopardstown last month but was only beaten roughly 2l on her yard debut/seasonal return at Navan in April and was well backed that day; not ruled out.

Spotlight: Has been knocking on the door again this season, running well in defeat in each of his last three starts; however, handicapper probably has his measure and all his best recent efforts have come over a fair bit further than this.

Spotlight: Scored from a higher mark last season but hasn't shown enough in a couple of recent starts over this sort of trip since returning to the level; others preferred.

Spotlight: Ended a poor run to land a 1m3.5f claimer at Limerick 17 days ago; this looks a lot tougher back in a handicap and didn't really give the impression he wanted this drop back in distance.

Spotlight: C&D winner; back to something like his best when winning a Leopardstown handicap off 1lb lower last season; well held on C&D return but likely to do better with that run under his belt and has an each-way squeak.
