1 (10)	Good Eye Tom Kiely-Marshall / W G M Turner	4yrs / 9st 9lb 389 Spotlight	50	25/1	10.60
Good Eye Ex-Irish; 17l third over 1m2f at Dundalk in January but seemed to better that last time when 7.5l ninth of 13 on stable debut at Kempton (7f); bit to prove on handicap debut.
2 (5)	Spring Festival D Nolan / D O'Meara	4yrs / 9st 7lb 96864- Spotlight	69	5/1	10.60
Spring Festival Six-race maiden; tried from 1m-1m4f since going handicapping last season, best effort when fourth of eight over 1m4f on AW on final start; unexposed and room for improvement; interesting.
3 (7)	Odd Socks Havana D Allan / S Spencer	7yrs / 9st 5lb 626627 Spotlight	61	6/1
Odd Socks Havana Probably better on the AW but won on turf for David O'Meara in July 2021 (6f, good); good second over 1m at Newcastle two runs back and not beaten far when seventh of 13 at Thirsk last week (7f, good to firm).
4 (3)	Mickey Mongoose Cam Hardie / Olly Williams	5yrs / 9st 5lb 514347 Spotlight	76	9/2	1.10	1.02
Mickey Mongoose Won over 1m at Southwell in February and some fair runs on the AW since; won a Brighton handicap for Charlie Johnston in 2023 (1m2f, good to firm) but hasn't fared as well on turf since.
5 (2)	Penny Ghent Andrea Pinna / S Whitaker	5yrs / 9st 2lb 90426- Spotlight	63	12/1
Penny Ghent 14-race maiden; sound run when second in a Redcar handicap last November (1m, soft); lesser run on AW two weeks later and absent since; others appeal more.
6 (8)	First Encounter P J McDonald / J Gallagher	4yrs / 9st 1lb 5815-7 Spotlight	66	8/1	14.10	1.02
First Encounter Won two races last year, the first over 1m at Leicester in July (good to firm); not particularly consistent, but should come on for his reappearance run; worth considering.
7 (6)	Likeashadow S H James / A D Brown	4yrs / 9st 0lb 0-909P Spotlight	63	11/1	21.20
Likeashadow Saddle slipped when pulled up last time; best form on the AW and hasn't been running well enough before that to suggest he can take this.
8 (9)	Tiberio Force Ben Sanderson / S Whitaker	6yrs / 9st 0lb 63400- Spotlight	65	25/1
Tiberio Force Hasn't the best of strike-rates; ran a couple of fair races when in the frame at Ripon and Newcastle last August, but ended the season on a low-key note; best form over further.
9 (4)	Top Gun Tina J Fanning / D Thompson	5yrs / 8st 13lb 494836 Spotlight	36	11/1
Top Gun Tina 14-race maiden; has a chance on his third at Newcastle two runs back (1m), but was disappointing next time; lacks consistency.
10 (11)	Anificas Beauty Jason Hart / P Winks	6yrs / 8st 13lb 468-82 Spotlight	64	5/1
Anificas Beauty All three wins have been at Chelmsford; ran her best race for a while when beaten a short head at Southwell last time (1m3f); has shown bits of from on turf, and quite interesting on first run over 1m (has raced mainly over 6f/7f although also tried over 1m3f and 2m).
11 (1)	Curious Mrs Fox Laura Coughlan / D Thompson	4yrs / 8st 13lb 09-898 Spotlight	68	18/1
Curious Mrs Fox Ex-John Davies; placed over 1m on a couple of occasions in first half of last turf season but form rather tailed off; mainly disappointing for this yard this year (last of eight at Wetherby on Sunday).
