Spotlight: Top of the pops last season in bumpers, beating the boys in the big one here (good to soft) before making it 4-4 in that sphere at Punchestown where her customary turbo kicked in when it mattered; her stable was quiet when she was surprisingly floored by Oldschool Outlaw on her hurdling debut and she then made no mistake from the front at Fairyhouse (2m2f, yielding) where her jumping was quick and accurate; tongue-tie is added; only six and she's probably still progressing; proven on the track, she'll take some beating.

Spotlight: Behind some of these in Aintree bumper last April but has left that form behind since joining Gordon Elliott; as was also the case with Bambino Fever, it was her debut over hurdles when narrowly repelling that mare at Naas, and she followed up with a super-stylish display in adding a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse (2m2f); this hasn't been a lucky race for Gordon Elliott but this mare's star is on the rise and her claims are crystal clear, so long as she doesn't need the soft or heavy ground on which her improvement has come.

Spotlight: Beaten about 13l by Bambino Fever in a bumper but she won three of those, including a Grade 3 at Punchestown (yielding); no surprise to see her doing well over hurdles and the defeats have come in a Grade 3 at Down Royal (won by Full Of Life who dictated) and a Grade 1 at Leopardstown where she was left in second at the final flight behind smart gelding Skylight Hustle; she's back against her own sex here and rates solid each-way material.

Spotlight: From a yard that's won two of the last five renewals of this; it was a useful maiden she won easily at Cork (2m4f, yielding) and she followed up in a 2m3f Listed event at Punchestown despite not being in love with the heavy ground (according to her trainer); the runner-up Switch From Diesel gave Bambino Fever something to think about in two bumpers last season, so that latest form heightens interest in this mare; the stable's winner 12 months ago was also dropping back in distance and returning from a similar break; very much one to bear in mind.

Spotlight: Won two bumpers and was third in the Grade 2 for mares at the Grand National meeting; her only defeat over hurdles came in a race won by Old Park Star and she was a game winner of a Grade 2 at Warwick last time, beating White Noise (2m3f, heavy; fine on good to soft); has a likeable attitude but that takes you only so far; cheekpieces are turned to; others preferred.

Spotlight: Had some of these behind when runner-up in the Grade 2 bumper for mares at Aintree last April; has taken her form to a higher level over hurdles, impressing in a Listed race at Newbury and not disgraced in defeat behind a talented older mare in a messy Grade 2 at Ascot (again on soft; has won on good); her form is roughly on a par with what You Wear It Well brought here when successful for the same yard three years ago; each-way claims.

Spotlight: One of three fillies in the race and 4yos are 0-9 in this, though only one traded at shorter than 20-1; Paul Townend was complimentary about all parts of her game after she won a Thurles maiden (2m, heavy) with her head in her chest; whether she's wise enough after just two runs for a race of this nature is questionable but she's clearly talented.

Spotlight: Cost £150,000 at the sale on the eve of the Gold Cup two years ago; hooded for last three races; looks very vulnerable on bumper form and she lacks experience over hurdles, as several flights were omitted when she beat a big field at Naas (2m, yielding); the runner-up is now 0-5 over hurdles; only one previous winner of this had raced once over hurdles; unconvincing.

Spotlight: Cracking effort for a maiden to finish fifth in last season's Triumph; won her first two this campaign, though was long odds-on for both (2m6f/2m) and she couldn't hold a candle to Oldschool Outlaw when returned to Graded company at Fairyhouse (2m2f); it takes some imagination to envisage her reversing those placings.

Spotlight: 4yo; French bumper winner who was entered in the Fred Winter on Tuesday but missed the cut; unbeaten hurdler and took the rise in class in her stride when narrowly too good for a smart subsequent winner, at Doncaster in January (Listed; soft; has won on good to soft); dangerous to leave out of calculations without knowing the ceiling of her ability.

Spotlight: Showed significant promise in much respected company in all her three defeats in France last spring (very soft or heavy); has reportedly worked well at her new home and there appears to be some confidence behind her armed with a 10lb age allowance.

Spotlight: A stablemate of Echoing Silence; strike-rate of 2-6 over hurdles wouldn't be in keeping with a typical winner of this race, and neither would the fact that she's already tried fences (0-2); however, she made all in a Grade 3 at Down Royal in late October (2m1f, good to yielding) and was determined in keeping Carrigmoornaspruce at bay; could run well.

Spotlight: Tongue tied for her last two starts; her winning spree ended when narrowly foiled by Kingston Queen in a Grade 2 at Warwick last month (2m3f, heavy) and she probably needs that trip or even further ideally.

Spotlight: Useful bumper form but hammered by Bambino Fever when they once clashed in that scene; steadily progressive hurdler and her trainer targeted this race straight after she won a Listed race at Thurles in December (yielding); probably playing for the places, however.

Spotlight: Held by Bambino Fever on bumper form but she has raised her game in maiden hurdles at Punchestown (heavy; won a bumper on good), finishing second to a good horse before accounting for a subsequent Leopardstown maiden winner with the pair in isolation; she'll need to unearth something from somewhere to threaten at this loftier level.

Spotlight: 0-13 in France but she contested some warm races and earned placed honours at Grade 2 and 3 level; joined current connections for 160,000euros and did what was expected of her in a weak maiden at Ludlow (2m5f, soft) for which she was long odds-on and won accordingly; may need plenty of ease underfoot to be at her best and even a peak effort will probably see her come up short.

Spotlight: Point and dual bumper winner; consistent without being strikingly progressive in going 2-3 over hurdles and the form of her latest win at Warwick (2m3f, good to soft) is no shining advertisement for her prospects.

Spotlight: Limited appeal on bumper exploits but those were for a different yard and she's looked highly progressive over hurdles in the West Country, the latest win in a Listed race; has earned herself a crack at this but she'll need a career best by some almighty margin to be in the shake-up.

Spotlight: Point, bumper and maiden hurdle winner who has 12l to find with Echoing Silence on their Punchestown meeting in December and there were no clear excuses, other than the heavy ground perhaps finding her out; even if happier on this surface (she has won on good to yielding and yielding to soft), she'll probably be feeling the heat when it matters.

Spotlight: Flat, bumper and hurdle winner in France where her only defeat came in a 1m4f Grade 1 bumper, which was also the only time she's not sported a hood; hurled into the deep end here by new connections and there doesn't appear to be a wave of expectation behind her.

Spotlight: Lightly raced 5yo whose two French wins (2m1f/2m3f) were on heavy ground; good ground when she was beaten fair and square in a Listed race at Taunton in December (behind St Irene) and that form gives her no right to be mixing it with the best of these.

Spotlight: Wetherby maiden winner who has been beaten in her other four races over hurdles; she doesn't have the form or the profile for this.
