Spotlight :
Useful at best but enigmatic to say the least and he's on a huge losing run; the positives this evening are a good record at Newcastle, a career-low mark and a recent wind operation, so he could pop up if on a going day.

Spotlight :
Back to form of late, winning at Wolverhampton (6f) last Saturday; just as effective at 5f and likely to be thereabouts again off 3lb higher.

Spotlight :
Four AW wins for Anthony Carson, all in headgear; steadily back to form for this stable, second of ten over C&D 16 days ago; the return of cheekpieces tonight feels like a positive move and he's one to consider.

Spotlight :
Now 11lb lower than when winning over this trip at Ripon in the spring; left Tim Easterby for 16,000gns after third at Redcar in October; not ruled out for new stable and he has gone close over C&D in the past.

Spotlight :
1m win for James Horton last year; proved a revelation when dropped to 6f and winning here in October, and she again travelled strongly when fourth to Fletchers Dream two weeks ago; may still be unexposed as a sprinter and today's drop to 5f looks well worth a go.

Spotlight :
Both wins have come over 6f here, the latest when making all under Tom Eaves two weeks ago (Too Much fourth); a 3lb rise does not look insurmountable but dropping to 5f for the first time is not sure to suit.

Spotlight :
Took ten attempts to taste success for the first time but did it in pretty good style over this trip at Southwell last month; may have more to offer and she's high on the list again off a 4lb higher mark.

Spotlight :
Thrice-raced 3yo; made winning debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) in August; no improvement in two subsequent runs but she did show good speed when third in handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) last time; left Richard Hughes for 15,000gns in October; interesting new recruit for a very capable stable.

Spotlight :
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf and made the frame three times last winter, including over C&D; went close at Wolverhampton in the summer and might have needed the run here last month after a break; dropped 3lb since and the usual headgear goes back on this evening; interesting.

Good run of form at Wolverhampton came to an end with a below-par sixth 30 days ago; has a course win to his name but needs to bounce back.

Three sprint wins when trained by David Simcock; 0-5 for current yard and now returns from five months off; probably best watched unless the market speaks in his favour.
