Spotlight :
Two wins and a second from three runs in French AQPS Flat races (1m4f-1m7f) last winter and she's out of a half-sister to the Champion Hurdle winner Epatante, who raced for the same owner/trainer combination; fascinating contender on British and hurdling debut.

Spotlight :
Has made the frame in three hurdles races at around this trip, leading briefly before the final flight when fourth of 14 at Stratford (good to soft) in October; should again give his running but others may have more potential.

Spotlight :
3-14 on the Flat, latest win coming at Newbury (1m2f, heavy; also successful on good and good to firm) in October (RPR 94); likely to have been well schooled and he's of major interest now sent over hurdles.

Spotlight :
Three Flat wins in the French provinces late last year (1m2f-1m4f); took well to hurdling at the first attempt when second of eight at Ludlow (2m, good to soft; 11-1) four weeks ago; raced freely that day and now wears a hood; open to improvement and must be considered.

Spotlight :
Ran three times in bumpers in 2022-23, soon a long way clear when scoring by 15l on the final occasion; has since changed stables and been off nearly two years; bred for jumping and he's an interesting hurdling debutant in a first-time tongue-tie.

Spotlight :
Completed a middle-distance hat-trick on the Flat in October, reaching a fairly useful standard; faced a stiff task on hurdling debut in Listed novice at Sandown (18-1) 19 days ago and weakened into a well-held last of five; plenty of improvement needed but this is easier and he's not discounted.

Spotlight :
Showed poor form on his first two outings but he improved a fair bit when beaten only 1l in maiden hurdle at Southwell (2m, good; 9-1) four weeks ago, always up with the pace; more progress is required but possible.

2-14 on Flat, both wins over 1m on AW here, latest in October (RPR 73); just as effective on turf; stamina is a possible issue now hurdling.

Spotlight :
Bought for £90,000 after winning a two-finisher Irish point in February; beaten at least 16l in a bumper (favourite) and two novice hurdles since; still has some potential but may be of more interest when handicapping.
