Spotlight :
Well beaten on first two starts (6f/7f, AW) and it's very questionable what he achieved when last of three in Redcar maiden (6f, soft) won by 1-10 favourite in October; however, he remains very unexposed and is worth a check in the betting.

Spotlight :
Nothing like the force of old but ended a long losing run when dipping into this grade over 1m here eight days ago; shoulders 4lb penalty this time but the drop back to 7f won't be a problem and he has a lot less to prove than some.

Spotlight :
Made the frame in three consecutive handicaps here (6f-7f) in the autumn and had excuse (became upset in stalls) when a disappointing favourite on latest outing four weeks ago; favoured by the weights in this classified race; major player.

Spotlight :
A maiden after eight runs but posted sound effort when third in 5f Southwell handicap just after Christmas and there's a pretty good chance this return to 7f will suit; one to consider.

Spotlight :
Kept on for third (no threat to front pair) in this grade here (6f) a week ago and is also suited by 7f but remains without a win since March 2023 and others in this line-up have stronger claims.

Spotlight :
Won very similar C&D race to this last summer and was second in C&D handicaps on next two outings; has strong claims if judged on those efforts but needs to raise her game after ending 2024 with two below-par runs.

Won in this grade on turf last summer (1m) and was very respectable fourth in C&D handicap on latest outing; won't be far away if ready to roll after ten-week break.

Won two C&D handicaps in the autumn and has remained in fairly good form since; not seen to best effect over 1m here last week but returns to his optimum trip today and enters calculations.

Spotlight :
Very disappointing on all six starts (5f-6f) for Derek Shaw since last April; has plummeted down the weights and now qualifies for this basement grade but urgently needs to prove some ability remains.

14-race maiden who struggled to get competitive in this grade (albeit after a six-month break) at Southwell (7f) on Saturday; sports first-time visor here; can't be recommended.
