Spotlight :
Seven-race maiden but he's reached the frame over C&D and at Newcastle (1m) in the last two of his four handicaps; seems tactically versatile and he's in the mix on this return to Polytrack.

Spotlight :
Hard to predict and record stands at 1-14 but he didn't get much luck when a 2l fifth at over C&D in November; has possibilities if he can back that up and his win came on Polytrack; cheekpieces back on.

Spotlight :
Won over C&D in November and runner-up on Tapeta in next two starts; no impact behind all-the-way winner at Southwell (7f) 11 days ago but things didn't go his way; respected back up in trip.

Spotlight :
His last success was in August 2023 but he's on a dangerous mark and was travelling well when badly hampered at a crucial stage at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack; 4-1) on New Year's Eve; could be a big factor if he gets some luck this time and he's an interesting contender.

Spotlight :
Form figures of 226142 on AW since September and demoted to second at Southwell (1m) 11 days ago; up 5lb but he hit a personal best last time and is open to more progress; key player.

Spotlight :
Just seven runs (one in a bumper) but down the field in three handicaps, including two (1m3f/1m2f) this winter; mark continues to fall but he needs to raise his game significantly back at this trip.

Spotlight :
Sole win from nine starts was in a C&D maiden in November 2023; patchy form in handicaps since and he was beaten 14l at Wolverhampton 12 days ago; mark continues to fall and cheekpieces are now added but others are more convincing; yard also runs Beauty Generation.

Spotlight :
Returned from a short break with a creditable third at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last month but he struggled back at 6f there last time; has something to prove again after that major blip and and this trip is an unknown factor; rare cheekpieces (tried last time) are removed.

Spotlight :
Four wins for James Fanshawe, including at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in October, but well held in both runs for this yard; ran into some trouble at Wolverhampton last time but still 3lb higher than for her last win and others are preferred; blinkers removed.
