Spotlight :
Won at Sedgefield (2m, soft) in January on third chase start; there were only two finishers and he's 6lb higher today, but this unexposed 8yo could still have more to offer; has had wind surgery since last time and he showed promise on good ground in a point-to-point; not discounted.

Spotlight :
With the ground unlikely to be testing he might get going too late at this trip, but the stiff track is in his favour and he's run well more often than not during this first chasing campaign, bumping into an unexposed winner when 13l second at Ayr a fortnight ago; could be thereabouts.

Spotlight :
His form has been mixed this season but he won at Newcastle (2m4f, good) in November and came second to a course specialist at Doncaster last time (2m, good; third has won since); on the shortlist.

Spotlight :
Very up and down this season but has run some good races and he won by 6l at Sedgefield (2m, good) 12 days ago; in the mix off this 6lb higher mark if backing up that latest performance.

Spotlight :
Won in good style at Catterick (1m7f, good to soft) last month; ran okay when 5l second of four there (1m7f, good) subsequently but needs something extra off the same mark here (7lb higher than for last win).

Spotlight :
10yo who was soundly beaten at Kelso (2m5f) and Newcastle (2m4f) in November on his last two starts; however, he won over this C&D (good to soft) in October and the return to this track and drop back in trip could be positives; has often run well after a break; possible player.

Spotlight :
11yo who has got better with each of his four runs for this yard and capitalised on a reduced mark to win in reapplied cheekpieces (retained) at Market Rasen (2m3f, good to soft) last month; back up 5lb he remains well treated on his old form and is not ruled out.

Spotlight :
He's 3lb lower than when second in this last year and was on the scoresheet over hurdles here in December; however, he's been well beaten over hurdles and fences the last twice; cheekpieces need to prompt a revival.

Spotlight :
Disappointing at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) last month having taken a heavy fall at Wetherby two starts ago; however, he was running well until exiting the race and he won at Doncaster (2m, good) in December; capable of having a big say if he's back on song.

Spotlight :
Won when back over fences at Hexham (1m7f, good) last June and has the same mark today; however, he hasn't kicked on from that victory and needs to raise his game on this first outing since December.

He's 2lb lower than when winning at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last July but this 12yo has struggled subsequently; major turnaround needed.
