Spotlight :
Well handicapped on last season's hurdling form; well beaten on first three chase starts and there's a slight doubt about his stamina today, but he took a big step in the right direction when going close at Ludlow (2m4f, good) last time and could play a leading role if seeing out the trip.

Spotlight :
10yo who hasn't threatened this autumn on his two starts since returning from an absence, but it was still a fair performance last time and he continues to drop down the weights; not ruled out.

Spotlight :
5yo who won over fences in France in May 2023 and his mark has fallen 15lb since he ran here last November, but he needs to improve upon last season's British performances if he's to win today.

Spotlight :
Two wins this season (3m1f/2m7f, good) and again ran well when second at Warwick (3m, good to soft) two starts ago; tailed off at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) since but he lost a shoe and he could bounce back today.

Spotlight :
Improved when switched to fences last season and reverts to this sphere having been pulled up over hurdles at Warwick on last month's reappearance (reportedly lost his action); however, he was pulled up in a chase on his final outing last term and others arrive with less to prove.

Spotlight :
Capitalised on a reduced mark at Carlisle (2m4f, soft) in March and good second at Perth (3m, soft) the following month; there can be hope this course winner will be fine on the forecast good ground and he's a contender if reappearing at the top of his game.

Spotlight :
Well beaten over hurdles at Worcester in September but was returning from a 104-day break and chasing is his game nowadays; won two in a row over fences at Southwell (3m, good) in the spring and he's a strong contender if back on song today.

Spotlight :
Won in first-time cheekpieces at Musselburgh (2m7f, soft) in February; the headgear returns today and he's also won on good ground, but he was tailed off at Kelso (3m2f, good) four weeks ago when back from a break and needs to leave that performance miles behind today.

Spotlight :
Pulled up at Huntingdon in April and there was no return to form at Market Rasen last month, but he may have needed that reappearance run and is on a competitive mark on last season's best form; not written off.
