Spotlight :
Seems versatile as regards ground; better than ever since dropped back to 6f, winning at Newmarket (by a neck) and Windsor (by short head; first two clear); still unexposed over this distance and commands respect.

Spotlight :
Below par in sole run this season but is normally consistent; showed he's useful with a couple of Class 2 wins (on soft ground) last term and his northern yard landed this prize in 2017 and 2022; one to consider.

Spotlight :
Unraced on soft/heavy; responded well to first-time visor at Ascot (6f) most recently, taking record to 3-8; now 8lb higher and upped in class but could well progress further in the retained headgear; shortlisted.

Spotlight :
Suited by good/firmer; record of 9-41 features wins in the 2024 Stewards' Cup and Ascot contest last month (had a spell in Bahrain in the interim); back on a tougher mark but he's 1-1 at Epsom and not ruled out.

Spotlight :
All turf wins on good/firmer but ties in closely with Eye Of Dubai on a piece of soft-ground form last autumn; regained the winning thread in competitive field at York (6f) most recently and can't be dismissed.

Spotlight :
Best effort this term when second at Leicester in April; beaten twice in this race (seventh in 2023, fifth in 2024) and weighted to the hilt but would be interesting if the ground is soft (3-5 on that surface).

Spotlight :
Justified favouritism at Kempton (6f) last month, taking AW record to 3-7 and registering a triple-digit RPR for the first time; only 1-8 on turf and has to deal with 7lb rise but looks hard to dismiss in current form.

Spotlight :
Record of 10-53 features a success off 8lb higher under Hollie Doyle in this contest in 2023 (made late headway into midfield last year); mixed results on AW this spring but he is attractively handicapped back on turf.

Spotlight :
Record is 3-17; suited by ground softer than good; below par on AW in sole run this season; in career-best form last autumn and ties in with two of today's rivals on Doncaster November running (stable debut).

Spotlight :
Multiple AW scorer who has a poor strike-rate on turf and came up short in this contest last year; on the plus side, he's lower in the weights this time and ran encouragingly at similar venue Brighton last week.

Ex-Gosden runner who has Group form but looks far from solid on his handicap results this term; failed to beat a rival last time (sold for 50,000gns since) and needs a turnaround on debut for new stable.
