Spotlight :
Creditable effort when runner-up at Kempton on Wednesday, having chased Silver Linnet throughout; 6lb better off with that rival today but 1l margin probably not a true refection of the winner's superiority, so facing no easy task to turn the tables.

Spotlight :
Very well backed and made all to score with authority when returning from break/making stable debut at Kempton on Wednesday (wore first-time visor); wide draw not ideal but should prove hard to catch again under 6lb penalty in first-time cheekpieces.

Spotlight :
Improved to land modest C&D maiden in December; possibly not suited by more patient tactics when respectable fourth under penalty here a week later and latest Dundalk sixth came in better race than this; remains fairly lightly raced and can get involved.

Spotlight :
Useful at his peak and four of 16 career wins came over this C&D; currently on a long losing run but has reached the frame all four starts since fitted with eyeshield this winter and shouldn't be far away.

Spotlight :
Got off the mark over C&D on 16th start just under a year ago; only 3lb higher today but not seen since finishing in midfield 329 days ago; refitted cheekpieces replaced usual blinkers; entitled to need this run.

Spotlight :
Satisfactory effort when sixth on return from short break here a month ago (6f); strike-rate just 1-18 and usually races over 6f but possible that combination of drop back in trip and returning cheekpieces could pay dividends.

Spotlight :
Still a maiden but posted sound efforts to reach the frame over C&D on both runs for current stable towards end of 2011; 1lb lower today and expected to be on the premises again.

Spotlight :
Ten-time winner who has slipped to new career-low mark; should appreciate return to Polytrack after two very moderate Southwell runs but is more effective over longer trips; wore first-time visor last time; usual blinkers back on today.

Spotlight :
Close second over 6f at Kempton in December but not able to match that form on three subsequent outings; wide draw provided mitigating circumstances when down the field behind Silver Linnet at Kempton on Wednesday but, even if returning to form, he tends to find 5f too sharp.
