Spotlight :
Heavily raced gelding, 9-92, placed 21 times; has a better record on AW than on turf; recorded sixth Dundalk win in March after three consecutive seconds, two of them in claimers; placed over this trip at Leopardstown on penultimate start; official rating (75) gives him every chance here.

Spotlight :
Useful form for this stable in 2023 and 2024, though best over longer distances than this; won over this trip at Chelmsford last autumn, during a spell with James Owen; promising apprentice aboard, leading chance if ready after a break.

Won an ordinary Dundalk maiden four starts ago; mid-field on her last two turf outings; needs to find extra.

Has done almost all her racing over longer distances, including over 1m4f on latest; previous fourth over 1m at Limerick was respectable, and she was placed over this trip on heavy ground at Galway last October.

Spotlight :
Sole win came on the beach at Laytown last year; runner-up in a claimer at Dundalk in March; not disgraced in a 7f handicap at the Curragh last time; however, turf form is relatively weak, 0-15, placed twice.

Modest form in maidens at two; positives to be taken from her sole nursery start when a staying-on fourth of 16 over this trip at the Curragh; decent pedigree, open to improvement; market could be informative about her prospects.

Spotlight :
Had been on a losing run but snapped that when a clearcut winner at Cork on Tuesday (handicap); with no penalty to carry, he's a likely player if turned out again.

16-race maiden on Flat, poor hurdler; showed early promise for Michael O'Callaghan as a juvenile in 2021; has been struggling over hurdles lately; seems safe to rule out.

Went close in a 7f maiden at Down Royal last September; no sign of that form since then; flopped when favourite here five weeks ago, rider reported filly had trouble negotiating the first bend; ex-Kevin Prendergast, first start for this stable.

Five-time winner; unplaced in five turf starts this season; not a bad effort when seventh of 27 at the Curragh last time; placed in two Dundalk claimers towards the end of last year; others better suited by the race conditions, including stablemate Comfort Line.
