Spotlight :
Two 7f turf wins for Archie Watson last spring; found things happening too quickly for him at Lingfield two weeks ago on his handicap/AW debut but he was keeping on and this track may prove more suitable; one to consider.

Spotlight :
Battled hard to win over C&D in November off 2lb lower (blinkered first time); runner-up on his next three starts but his form has dipped slightly on his last two runs (both in today's cheekpieces), albeit he ran creditably at Newcastle for a 7lb claimer and then had a poor draw last time; he's found himself in a race without a lot of pace and he's capable of a big run off this mark.

Impressive over C&D in January and ran another sound race when dead-heating for second over 5f at Newcastle three weeks ago; more appealing than many.

Spotlight :
Landed the big 6f handicap on Good Friday last year; that perhaps his main objective this time around too but both runs since joining Tim Easterby have been promising; drawn wide but can miss the break and likely to be held up in any case; each-way shout.

Spotlight :
Not seen to best effect at Lingfield last time but his earlier C&D second, off a 1lb higher mark, was more like it; happiest challenging off a strong pace though and not sure to get it.

Spotlight :
Dictated a steady pace when winning at Lingfield (7f) in December; respectable efforts on his next two starts but well beaten in a hot 7f handicap here last month (cheekpieces first time, retained); not sure he's well enough treated for a race of this nature.

Spotlight :
Still to add to his debut win and although he ran well at Kempton (6f) last month, he was well placed in a steadily run affair; needs more to defy this mark.

Asserted late when winning a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton in January; three solid efforts have followed and he's capable of a big run despite the widest stall.

Three 6f wins this year, two of them over C&D; beaten fair and square off this mark here three weeks ago and probably too high in the weights now.

Second in a 5f Listed race here 13 months ago but it's been downhill all the way since then; lowly mark now but he hasn't looked like taking advantage this winter; return to 6f beneficial, at least.

Rated 13lb higher this time last year but he hasn't been firing on all cylinders since returned to AW in November; needs to step up on last month's Lingfield fifth.
