Spotlight: Won a 3m Doncaster novice handicap chase in fine style for Nigel Twiston-Davies in January; second-best of the home team when fourth behind Daily Present in the Kim Muir; can be expected to improve from stable debut at Listowel; prospects of reversing form with Talk In The Park.

Spotlight: Progressive novice; built on Limerick second when winning a 2m5f Roscommon contest; stepped up again when scoring over a near-3m trip at Killarney; completed hat-trick on handicap debut in a 2m4f Gowran event at the beginning of the month; return to longer trip should play to his strength.

Spotlight: Progressive in handicap hurdles before starting life as a chaser with a win at Kilbeggan (2m4f, good) in June; lost chance at Killarney in July with a bad mistake at the sixth; snug winner from Arctic Fly in 2m2f contest at Galway on handicap chase debut; made mistakes in a conditions trace at Listowel; cheekpieces on now.

Spotlight: Two wins and two seconds from his last four completed starts; scored with plenty to spare at Listowel; much stronger opposition now; however, he gets here on a handy weight despite 10lb rise.

Spotlight: Two bumper wins in 2023, maiden hurdle scorer last year; twice second in beginners' races before an unchallenged success in a modest contest at Wexford; fell at the tenth when favourite for Kerry National; Danny Mullins replaces Paul Townend; could be in the mix with a clear round.

Spotlight: Last season's novice chase campaign was cut short after two failures to complete; returned in good shape to win at Tipperary and backed that up with a second placing behind Aspurofthemoment at Galway; pulled up in Kerry National, Paul Townend aboard now; stamina doubt remains.

Spotlight: Best of four runs in beginners' chases when second at the Galway festival; creditable third over 2m6f at Listowel on handicap debut; could not be guaranteed to uphold form with Weveallbeencaught who may have needed the run.

Spotlight: The 2024 Grand National Trial winner at Haydock; fine effort in third behind Stuzzikini in the Troytown at Navan last November; lost form later in the campaign; plenty to find with Weveallebeencaught on Kim Muir running.

Spotlight: Took to chasing well as a 4yo and the won a five-runner mares' Grade 2 novice event over 2m5f at Thurles in January; failed to do herself justice in a Punchestown festival handicap won by Sea Music; youth on her side, capable of paying her way this term.

Spotlight: Three chase wins, including a 2m7f Grade 3 at Punchestown last October; often highly tried when with Mouse Morris; creditable third in the Kerry National on stable debut; fair chance with 5lb off again; trainer (responsible for last year's winner) also has Weveallbeencaught in the line-up.

Spotlight: Very useful handicap hurdler on his day but yet to make any further progress over fences since winning Listowel beginners' chase last season; went close at Perth last time, faces a much harder task in a handicap of this standard.

Spotlight: Has shown a liking for a thorough test of stamina with a second in the National Trial at Punchestown (3m3f, soft) in February and a third to Haiti Couleurs in the National Hunt Chase; never a threat when a remote tenth behind the same horse in the Irish Grand National.

Spotlight: Won twice over fences last season, needs to improve on this term's chase/hurdles form; third off his lower hurdles mark last time; held by Talk In The Park and Weveallbeencaught on Listowel running.

Spotlight: Won a 2m4f Punchestown novice handicap chase in May; made good headway in the Galway Plate before fading late; fourth over a shorter trip later in the week (Arctic Fly second then); previous jumping issues surfaced again at Killarney; has a bit to find with French Dynamite on Kerry National running.

Spotlight: Not the most consistent sort when trained by Harry Fry, though won a Grade 2 handicap chase at Cheltenham in April last year (2m4f, good); made mistakes at Punchestown on first outing for Enda Bolger; harder to fancy than stablemate Pride Of Place.

Spotlight: Is 4-21 over hurdles winner, 2-9 over fences; has been mixing between the two this season; failed to take advantage of a lower hurdles mark at Tipperary two weeks ago; most of his best form has been over shorter, though he finished second to the smart Western Fold in the Mayo National.
