Spotlight :
Made all under Tom Marquand at Chelmsford on seasonal debut, comfortably beating Existent and registering a third AW win; has a consistent turf record (33422) and looks a likely player returned to this sphere.

Spotlight :
Record is 3-10, the most recent win on AW in March when narrowly beating Almaty Star; didn't live up to expectations at Musselburgh since but has possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear.

Spotlight :
In good form on AW this year and was beaten only a whisker by Spartan Arrow on penultimate outing; Goodwood success last September suggests he'll take well to Epsom; solid claims.

Spotlight :
Consistent on AW since December and ties in with some of these rivals; capable of being involved and has each-way possibilities but brings a portion of frustration, having failed to win since 2022.

Spotlight :
Ran creditably behind Spartan Arrow and Almaty Star in latest AW start; however, has a better strike-rate in that sphere than on grass and it's three years since his sole turf success.

Spotlight :
Couple of respectable efforts on AW this year; only 1-15 in handicaps but a 2022 novice success at Brighton suggests she'll take well to this venue; not dismissed.

Spotlight :
Record of 3-5 (on AW) since wearing headgear, making all at Chelmsford switched to blinkers (from cheekpieces) most recently; has won on turf; respected in the retained blinds, with further progress plausible.

Spotlight :
Has a much better strike-rate on turf than on AW; however, ran well (close fifth) in the Dash here in 2023 and had an excuse (raced in unfavourable position) in this race last year; on an attractive mark.

Has gained both wins at York and may be more interesting when returned to that venue; never dangerous in last year's 3yo Dash in sole Epsom attempt; gelded over the winter.

Spotlight :
Campaigned mostly on AW; took well to first-time blinkers in February but has failed to build on that success and this return to turf presents a stiffer assignment; headgear retained.

Spotlight :
Well exposed but was a profitable sprinter to follow last summer, having won at 12-1 and 16-1; likely to handle Epsom, having scored at Brighton in 2023; could go well.
