Spotlight :
Sent off favourite for his first handicap at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft) and beat all bar a fellow handicap debutant who has run well again since; up 4lb but can no doubt improve again.

Spotlight :
It looked more testing than the official good to soft when he comfortably justified favouritism at Hereford nine days ago (2m5f, good to soft); escapes a penalty but he was ridden by a 10lb claimer that day; this looks a deeper race.

Spotlight :
Back from wind surgery to win a Catterick handicap by clear daylight, over 1m7f on soft; coped well with the 6lb rise to finish second over the extended 2m3f back there 22 days ago (good to soft); has some momentum behind him.

|
Spotlight :
Consistent 7yo who ran well for a long way when returning from a longer break at Stratford (2m2f, heavy) and less taxing ground here won't harm his chances; thereabouts.

Spotlight :
Ex-Irish 10yo who has won twice over hurdles and fences; could be a player if Olly Murphy can reverse his fortunes, but ideally wants further.

Spotlight :
Had 16 races and was winning for a third time when pulling clear with the second in a 2m5f soft-ground handicap at Fontwell; has the penalty with Luke Scott again claiming 5lb but could deal with that if he's as good again nine days later.

Spotlight :
Two thirds at Wetherby (the latest on handicap debut; 2m3f) was followed by a lesser effort at Newcastle (2m6f, soft); it could be that he failed to stay last time and he has a race in him off this mark.

Spotlight :
Winning pointer who didn't last long with Willie Mullins; early days with this yard and ran well enough behind a smart winner in his latest novice (2m3f, soft) to believe he should have a future in handicaps.

With Nicky Henderson for his final win; has mostly struggled since moving yards and was pulled up on his return to hurdling; cheekpieces tried then are replaced by blinkers.

Spotlight :
His fifth win over hurdles when collecting at Uttoxeter last summer (2m, soft) and he's 5lb lower this afternoon; not much to shout about in his last four races, the latest after a break and wind surgery.
