Spotlight :
Unexposed 3yo who won a Redcar maiden (7f, good) in July before an easy win in four-runner novice at Catterick last month; this is a different test in a competitive handicap but his opening mark looks fair and he still has plenty of potential; strongly respected.

Spotlight :
Ideally suited by good or slower ground; has mixed record since his win at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) in May but he's run well in big-field events last twice including when fifth in Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last month; this step back up in trip is no problem and he's in the mix off 1lb lower than last time.

Spotlight :
Progressive 3yo who made it 2-3 in handicaps when completing a double at Carlisle (7f, soft) 16 days ago; up another 7lb but that was a stylish win and he still looks feasibly treated; interesting contender back at the scene of his first success.

Spotlight :
Out of sorts on AW in final two runs last winter but he got back to form with a bang when landing a classified event at Ascot (7f, soft) on his return three weeks ago; nudged up 2lb for that but he's now 3-6 on turf and is respected back in a handicap.

Spotlight :
Now 4lb lower than for his Doncaster win (7f, heavy) last October but he's 0-12 since and has faded in last four runs; visor returns but he needs to raise his game back up in grade.

Spotlight :
Scored three times (1m/1m1f) in Germany; 0-11 for current yard but he's on dangerous mark and was beaten less than 2l in first-time visor at Chester (6f, good) last time; this step back up in trip is a positive and has claims if he can build on that last run; another change of headgear.

Spotlight :
Dual course winner who went close over C&D last month but he's been disappointing since including a laboured effort back here last time; losing run is now up to 15 and others are more convincing.

Spotlight :
Won off 7lb higher at Thirsk (1m, soft) in September 2022 but he's had only five runs since and was tailed off in his final run last season; had wind surgery since but he needs a major revival on comeback.

Spotlight :
Two 7f wins at Newbury (good/good to firm) this summer but he's not easy to predict and was well held at Thirsk last time; needs to step up again after that and this return to testing ground is a worry (withdrawn due to heavy at Newbury last week).
