Spotlight: Admirably consistent in defeat this year and remains on a fair mark, especially with Jimmy Dalton taking away 7lb; fine at 7f or 1m, so has a solid chance.

Spotlight: Her third win over Navan's 6f when scoring by 4l there 11 days ago; probably stays 7f and a greater concern would be the 11lb rise in this stronger company; she'll do well to follow up.

Spotlight: Questionable whether her recent near miss in a 7f AW maiden represented any improvement and the handicapper saw fit to raise her 6lb (to the winner's mark); could run well again but she's not entirely convincing.

Spotlight: Closely matched with Purely on their recent clash in a 7f maiden at Dundalk, in which she finished fourth and extended her losing streak to 13; she's essentially frustrating, but the first-time visor could trigger something.

Spotlight: Third to Bella Colombia here over 1m1f before winning on her return visit (1m; first time in this headgear combination); 2lb lower now having struggled since, though deep ground was a feasible excuse last time.

Spotlight: Runs well now and again but her last win is a faded memory and stall 17 is no help.

Spotlight: Sole win was over 6f at Navan but has competitive form at 7f and 1m; running better than form figures imply and has a useful draw.

Spotlight: Back-to-back wins in C&D handicaps during August 2025; now 3lb lower than for the last of those and a slow start was no help back here last time, having previously hinted at a return to form at Naas; the return of a hood should be a good thing.

Spotlight: Won twice (both over 7f) during a busy year and holding his form well; the winner got first run when second at Down Royal three weeks ago; considered.

Spotlight: Bellewstown winner on her penultimate start in July (1m, good); after an 8lb rise she ran well at Galway (extended 1m) but the drop back to 7f is a worry, even accounting for this stiff track; absent for 82 days as well.

Spotlight: Interesting on some of his form at this trip but hard to take too many positives from last three runs (1m/7f/6f).

Spotlight: Won over 1m/1m1f this summer, the latest here; still on a competitive mark judged on her close third here in August and that's without accounting for Reese Holohan's claim, but dropping back to 7f doesn't look a positive.

Spotlight: Both wins have come at a mile and 7f hasn't really looked her trip, so some reservations despite her return to form at Thurles (extended 1m).

Spotlight: Second reserve; adores Sligo where he won again back in May; down the field at the Curragh afterwards; others preferred.

Spotlight: Third reserve; over three years since he won his 7f maiden at Down Royal and finished last on recent belated return in a non-handicap at Gowran; has far too much to prove.

Spotlight: Some ability for Godolphin before sold on for 20,000gns in July; no worthwhile form for current yard and this trip is a change in direction.
