Spotlight :
Dual-purpose; won handicap hurdle at Punchestown in January; encouraging handicap Flat debut when beaten 0.75l into third at Roscommon (1m4f, good) off 1lb higher 19 days ago; entitled to come on for that effort; big player.

Was ending a three-year hiatus on the Flat when scoring over C&D off 64 in April and followed up with a good second here over 1m5f; disappointed when sent off favourite for Sligo handicap hurdle on latest; respected back on the Flat.

Fair hurdler was fit from that sphere when second to Grappa Nonino in 2m AW handicap in March; made good late headway when third at Gowran (1m6f, soft) a month later; entitled to be in the mix.

Strong stayer has won at up to 2m1f; got the better of Palamon by 1.5l over 2m on AW in March but was well behind that rival from 8lb worse off at Gowran on latest; might prefer further than this these days.

Spotlight :
Dual-purpose winner goes on any ground; has run respectably in stronger races at Cork this season; 4lb out of the handicap last time, harmed his chance by starting slowly and racing keenly, but stayed on well near the finish for third; strong contender in this grade.
