Spotlight :
Won major handicap at Newbury (2m, good) in February 2023 but was largely disappointing last season and needs to have been refreshed by his summer break; cheekpieces removed after one use.

Spotlight :
Very progressive this season, winning four in a row on good ground before going close at Perth (2m, good) last month; can cope if there's rain here and may yet have a bigger performance in him; respected.

Spotlight :
Last of nine on the Flat last week, after a break, but won C&D novice hurdle (good to soft) in January and his handicap run at Kempton (2m, good) in April was arguably better than eventual 22l defeat suggests; on a good mark; dangerous to ignore.

Spotlight :
Took form to new level when winning consecutive races during the winter, and was very respectable sixth at Aintree festival (2m, soft) in the spring; didn't fire in Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen in July, though, and current mark demands a career-best run.

Spotlight :
Six-time hurdle winner; just behind King's Castle when fifth at Perth (2m, good) last month but that was still a good effort, and he recently went close on the Flat; would probably prefer the rain to stay away but, otherwise, he's likely to be right in the thick of things.

Spotlight :
Three-time hurdle winner for Stuart Edmunds; started off for James Owen with two respectable Flat runs this summer and went down fighting when back over hurdles at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good; first-time hood) on Friday; will be 7lb out of the weights if she makes a quick reappearance here, though.

Spotlight :
Tends to race too freely but is 5-9 over hurdles, the latest win gained in pretty good style at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) in June; fell on next two outings, latterly at first fence on chasing debut three weeks ago, but has claims here if her confidence has not been dented; tongue-tie added.

Spotlight :
Won comfortably by 9l at Stratford (2m, good) in June, after a layoff, and probably posted another career-best effort when rallying second to Enthused at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July; on tough mark now, though, and Worcester last month was a bit disappointing.
