Spotlight :
Now 2lb worse off with Precious Spartan than when beating him a neck over C&D in December (both first-time visored); no headgear tonight, having since been gelded, and will be happier back at this lower level.

Spotlight :
Sister to the useful Forceful Speed, who improved with time; perhaps this one will do the same, having failed to justify support on debut last summer and finished well held twice more since; it will be interesting to see how she goes in the market.

Spotlight :
Maiden who's been expensive to follow for two yards and goes beyond 7f for the first time in a newly added tongue-tie; fully exposed and beginning to run out of excuses, having finished behind two of these at Kempton latest.

Spotlight :
Only decent effort came over C&D (first-time visor) three months ago, when coming home nicely to finish second to Hashtagnotions in a fair race for the grade; a subsequent Southwell effort will need forgiving though.

Spotlight :
Longstanding maiden (7f-1m4f) who again gave his running from a wide stall at Kempton last time (picked off late by a few, including Magna, who'd sat further back); set to go well again in another new form of headgear.

Spotlight :
Finished last on his first three runs and again when favourite for a C&D nursery four months ago (pulled hard and pestered in front); since had wind surgery and is evidently felt capable of better than that.

Spotlight :
Regressive maiden who hasn't looked to see it out in three runs beyond sprint trips; a third form of headgear and first-time tongue-tie is given a go, likely more in hope than expectation.

Spotlight :
Backed up her big-priced Kempton second when filling the same position last time (No Release fourth, Miakoda fifth); will appreciate the step back up to 1m on that evidence.

Spotlight :
Stamina on dam's side but never a factor upped to 1m4f last time; may be better judged on previous Kempton third (1m) off 3lb higher, an effort that gives him fair claims in an ordinary handicap.
