Spotlight :
Limited joy from a win perspective this year but he's run some cracking races in defeat and was a shade unfortunate, having got to the front at Newmarket (6f, good) 14 days ago, to get touched off on the line by a smart prospect; raised 3lb but Ryan Moore rides for the first time; solid contender.

Spotlight :
Progressive winner of two 6f handicaps (both good to firm) in August once blinkered, showing a good attitude to win a warm race at York on the second occasion; no headgear when a respectable fourth on his Newmarket return (good to soft) but he's a major contender with blinkers refitted; has more to come this year.

Spotlight :
Can be slowly away and he nearly made a rod for his own back at Leicester (6f, good) recently when having to be steadied in a pocket 2f out before negotiating an awkward passage to win in good style; up 6lb but looks destined for better.

Spotlight :
Won Group 3 over 7f (good to firm) as a 2yo but was never himself as a 3yo; has been getting his eye in back over 6f for new yard, coming on for a promising return when briefly dangerous inside the final furlong at Newmarket (6f, good) recently, only to find others coming home more strongly; he may well come on again for yard that's 2-7 here in the last five years.

Spotlight :
Races prominently; last three wins over 7f but this trip has also suited this year, on the AW then back on turf at Newmarket (good; closely matched with the second Aramram) 14 days ago; up 2lb to career-high mark; should give it a good shot again.

Spotlight :
Useful turf handicap form for the Gosdens, including when a never-nearer fifth of 19 to Elmonjed at York (6f, good to firm; later won on soft) in August; made a winning start for this yard in a Listed race at Meydan and although his Musselburgh defeat (5f) in April was disappointing he still makes the shortlist back over 6f.

Spotlight :
Has flourished for new yard, coming from off the pace to win at Yarmouth and Doncaster (both 6f; good and good to firm) but he never looked like getting there when fourth of ten at Ascot last week and these rivals will be harder to overhaul.

Spotlight :
Had course form earlier in career and he's reunited with Oisin Murphy but his losing run goes back three years and recent efforts suggest this level will be hard work for him.

Spotlight :
Stays 6f on the AW but 5f looked to be his trip when he travelled strongly and found plenty to lead inside the final furlong at Goodwood (good; second-time cheekpieces); back up 2lb and should still be well treated but others still preferred over the extra furlong.
