Spotlight :
Safely held when fourth of seven on handicap debut at Sandown (2m, soft) in February, but will appreciate today's ease in grade and it's possible the different trip-and-ground combination will show him in a better light.

Spotlight :
Safely held in three maiden/novice hurdles (2m-2m3f) since quite promising debut in soft-ground Carlisle bumper in December, but represents a top stable and may fare better in handicaps; tongue-tie fitted.

Just 1-11 over hurdles but looked back in good nick at Wincanton (2m4f, good) last month, coming from off the pace to finish second; won't be far away if in similar form.

Spotlight :
Kept on well for second on recent handicap debut at Chepstow (2m3f, good); that race did not competitive beforehand, but it was run in a good time for the grade and this fellow is only 1lb higher; considered.

Spotlight :
Placed on Irish point debut a year ago and on both hurdling starts this season, more recently when third of ten at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) in February; does not look harshly treated for this handicap debut and should be fine on the faster ground.

Spotlight :
Unseated rider in a chase on last month's stable debut and now 0-10 under all codes, but Fergal O'Brien may yet find the key to him; market reference recommended before this handicap hurdle debut.

Spotlight :
Returned from break with pretty good fourth here (2m3f, good to soft) in February, but was well beaten on both outings last month (3m1f/2m3f) and needs a big boost from the first-time blinkers.

Spotlight :
Made all at Southwell (2m4f, good) in December (first-time tongue-tie/cheekpieces) and returns to hurdling after good third on recent Flat handicap debut (no headgear); not very reliable but has a chance if on a going day.

Off the mark over hurdles with clearcut success at Worcester (2m7f, good) last summer, but was out of form when last seen in September and has fitness to prove.

Belied 100-1 odds when close third at Southwell (2m4f, good) in November, his third handicap, but we haven't seen him again since and some of the others have more compelling profiles.
