Spotlight: Yard's runners often go well here and last year's winner is back to defend his crown off 8lb higher; that success came after a similar break so his lack of a recent run isn't a concern but he has to prove this mark isn't beyond him.

Spotlight: One of two for yard; AW winner placed in two of last three starts on the Flat; new yard now and went close off this mark on last start over hurdles at Limerick; ground fine but lack of a recent run is a concern.

Spotlight: Second runner for yard; 0-14 but hasn't been beaten far in last three starts, all on good ground; the more the track dries out the better his chance; watch the weather.

Spotlight: One of two for yard; some decent runs in defeat in maidens and wasn't disgraced on handicap debut at Killarney just over a month ago; down 2lb and handles an ease; could go well.

Spotlight: Second runner for yard; shock 250-1 win over C&D here last year in a maiden hurdle; nowhere near that level in six starts since and lacks a recent run; return to this venue needs to revive.

Spotlight: One of better efforts on latest, a 3l third of 14 at Sligo (2m2f, good) in a first-time hood (retained); handles an ease and place shout if the headgear works again.

Spotlight: Improved efforts the last twice in maidens at Kilbeggan (2m) and Tramore (2m6f); jockey reported he wasn't happy with his mount's action from the last hurdle to the line on latest; probably best watched on handicap debut.

Spotlight: Second reserve; some fair efforts in defeat this year; best runs have come on good ground so probably needs the track to dry out.

Spotlight: Second runner for yard; showed a modest level of ability in Britain for former stable; has been gelded and worth a market check if getting a run on second start for Eric McNamara after finishing sixth here yesterday.

Spotlight: Narrowly denied at Sligo (2m2f, good) on penultimate off 4lb higher in first-time cheekpieces; not as good at Wexford without the headgear latest but it returns here; easy ground would be a query.

Spotlight: Flat winner has shown a bit of promise in maiden hurdles; worth a market check on handicap debut with talented claimer easing his welter burden.

Spotlight: Dual-purpose maiden has shown ability over hurdles but hasn't really been threatening in recent starts; however, he drops into 0-100 company for the first time so a big run would not surprise.

Spotlight: Modest form in maidens at 2m-2m3f on varying ground; 25-1 and well beaten on handicap debut at Fairyhouse when last seen in April; still early days but likely best watched unless the market speaks.

Spotlight: First reserve; promise displayed in bumpers has not been replicated over hurdles; 66l defeat on handicap debut latest; still early days but can only be watched for now.

Spotlight: Second runner for yard; no show in maidens (18.5f-21.5f) and raced very keenly at times; big drop in trip for handicap debut and opening mark doesn't look a gift; watch.

Spotlight: One of two for yard; long odds and soundly beaten in a trio of maidens at 2m-2m1f on varying ground; off since April and makes handicap debut; returns with yard in decent form so check the market.

Spotlight: 0-16 on the Flat; best effort over timber came in a 2m maiden hurdle here last year but was still beaten 13.5l in that contest; not obviously well treated for handicap debut and best watched.

Spotlight: Moderate form in maiden hurdles at 2m-20.5f for Andy Slattery when last seen in early 2023; returns from mammoth layoff and can only be watched on handicap and stable debut in first time tongue tie unless money comes.

Spotlight: Has failed to improve for the switch to handicaps, beaten 76l in this headgear combination at Cork on latest; down another 5lb but hard to fancy.

Spotlight: Without a win since March 2022 and recent runs have not suggested a return to winning ways is imminent; hard to fancy.
