Spotlight: Sole win over 7f at Brighton last May but he bettered that form in defeat over 6f later, when looking likely to improve for a stiff test at the trip; returned to action with a good second of 17 at Haydock (good) two weeks ago when having to be switched then run down late on; raised 2lb to a career-high mark but can improve further; in-form yard won this in 2019.

Spotlight: Won this last year but rather trod water later until a visor replaced cheekpieces back on turf last week, scoring by wide margins at Wetherby and Brighton (6f); left Michael Keady for 20,000gns since; can't be ruled out but the weights task is heavier now, 7lb higher than last time.

Spotlight: All three wins over 7f and 1m but he showed no lack of early speed in his first 6f handicap, on Kempton AW 19 days ago, when he didn't give an inch in a tight finish; looks worth persevering with at this trip and has a good run in him.

Spotlight: Mostly leads; has done his winning over 7f on AW and turf (good to firm and good) but little in it as to whether he's better at that trip or 6f; drops in grade but this could be another step too far off current mark.

Spotlight: Useful over 6f and 7f in 2022 and 2023 but he had a hard time of it last year despite taking a brisk drop in the weights; encouraging yard debut on Southwell AW in February on penultimate start and, although he never threatened at Newcastle in March, he isn't ruled out back on turf.

Spotlight: Consistent since 6f win on AW in February; seen less often on turf but he had bits of form last summer off similar marks to today's that would see him involved; often apprentice ridden but Rossa Ryan takes over.

Spotlight: Just one win on turf but he's had few chances over 6f on good or quicker ground and excelled himself when beating a big field at York (good to firm) last July, the only time Hollie Doyle has ridden him; in the melting pot back on turf.

Spotlight: Flourished over 6f on AW for former trainer when blinkers were first fitted, beating Northcliff in cosy fashion at Newcastle in January; not so effective over 5f at Newmarket on yard debut in April and although the return to 6f will suit he looks on a highish mark now.

Spotlight: Won over 6f and 7f in Ireland as a 2yo; a lost soul for much of the time since but he had dropped a long way in the weights when running his best race for this yard when second of ten at Wolverhampton (7f) in January; worth a look for trainer who's won two of the last nine runnings.

Spotlight: Made all for both 6f wins on turf (good and good to firm); still 5lb higher than the latest of them last July and was said to have moved poorly when tailed off on recent Leicester comeback; best watched.

Spotlight: Three wins already this year, two of them over 6f (AW) and one over 7f at Brighton (good to firm) last Tuesday; ran without a penalty at Brighton again the next day but never in contention behind Northcliff; a 3lb higher mark asks for extra.

Spotlight: Broke his duck in only his second 6f handicap, on Newcastle AW in December, but never involved on yard debut in January; others are more likely.
