Spotlight: Has made a consistent start to his career, having produced form figures of 233, all over 6f; may be capable of progress in handicaps and, all things considered, looks a solid contender.

Spotlight: Defied top weight in similar event over C&D (good) last month, holding on narrowly from a subsequent dual scorer (pair clear) and taking record to 2-7; very solid kept to same scenario and warrants respect up 6lb.

Spotlight: Shaped encouragingly at York (7f) on stable/seasonal debut while leaving the impression this return to 6f will suit; off the mark in autumn Pontefract event (soft) on last attempt at this trip; not ruled out.

Spotlight: Yet to race on ground softer than good; successful at Windsor (6f) with reappearance under his belt, taking record to 2-8; has to overcome an 8lb rise but is largely consistent and likely to be thereabouts.

Spotlight: Took his handicap form to a new level last month, finishing second over C&D (good to firm) then opening his account in Ripon contest (6f, good to soft); upped in class but may improve further; shortlisted.

Spotlight: Four-race maiden who has shown promise in two notable contests, latest at Epsom (5f) last weekend when rallying for close sixth; open to improvement back up in trip and back down in grade; one to consider.

Spotlight: Steadily progressive as a 2yo until facing difficult tasks in the autumn; one of only two C&D winners in the field and looks interesting returned to this scenario with Thirsk reappearance (5f) under her belt.

Spotlight: Below par on good ground last time (handicap debut) and may need softer; gelded since; gained his 2yo win in hood and looks interesting with this headgear reapplied; has low mileage and isn't fully exposed.

Spotlight: Novice promise (6f) comprised a win at Thirsk and close third at Doncaster; ran as if something was amiss in handicap since; half-brother to a prolific winner for his connections and may do better still.

Spotlight: Two from two since upped to 6f, winning at Haydock (heavy) and Doncaster (soft) last autumn; open to further progress over this distance and has possibilities on reappearance, especially if the mud is flying.

Spotlight: Ex-Irish maiden who has shown best form over 1m; disappointing favourite at Carlisle most recently, failing to back up Doncaster effort; enough to prove back down 2f in distance.

Spotlight: Has raced exclusively over 5f and gained both wins at tight, turning Chester; below form in both runs this term and has enough to prove over this straight, stiff 6f.

Spotlight: Scored twice on good ground last summer and ran well on AW in the autumn; form has dipped sharply this term and he's best watched unless the market suggests a revival is likely.

Spotlight: Showed ability over 7f/1m last year for Tom Clover, without shaping as if he's crying out for this drop to sprinting; gelded over the winter and sold for 8,000gns last month; the betting may offer further guidance.
