Spotlight: Exploited a reduced mark when the even-money favourite at Nottingham (8.3f, good to soft) last Wednesday; won over 1m2f in May and is also effective on soft ground; had just over 2l to spare last time and could play another leading role under a 6lb penalty.

Spotlight: Won at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) in June and, having been upped to 1m4f, he's run well to placed on soft ground at Beverley and Hamilton on his last two starts; has shaped as though 1m2f may prove to be his optimum trip for now and he's high on the list in a first-time hood.

Spotlight: Well beaten at Ayr (1m2f, heavy) a fortnight ago but has run some good races in defeat this season and has dropped back to her last winning mark; third in this last year and she's not discounted.

Spotlight: 0-12 but he's often run well this year, twice placed over C&D (including on good to soft; unraced on softer) and going close at Bath (1m2f, good to firm) most recently; in the mix if handling conditions.

Spotlight: Following an absence this front-runner has been well beaten on her two starts this year, both on AW; however, she's 3-6 on turf, as opposed to 0-5 on AW, and has won on heavy and good to soft; intriguing contender now back on this surface.

Spotlight: Won at Lingfield (1m2f, soft) in June and ran his best race since when third at Ayr (1m2f, heavy) latest; respected with conditions in his favour.

Spotlight: She's run well more often than not during this busy campaign and won at Ayr (1m2f, soft) last month before keeping on well for a creditable third of 13 at Hamilton (8.3f, soft) last time; firmly in calculations back up in trip.

Spotlight: Soft-ground nursery winner who has been lightly raced in this 3yo campaign and kept on well for fourth at Ayr (1m, soft) last month; on that latest evidence this step up to 1m2f is well worth a go and he's on the shortlist in first-time cheekpieces.

Spotlight: Just one win from his 15 starts but he was a good second at Ripon (1m2f, soft) last month and again ran well when third at Hamilton (1m1f, heavy) most recently; he might not be far away.

Spotlight: 3yo who made it three wins this summer when scoring at Beverley (1m2f, soft) in August but two lesser performances have followed (1m2f/1m4f, good/soft) and he needs to bounce back.

Spotlight: Had plenty of work to do when hampered at Salisbury (1m2f, soft) three weeks ago; however, she won at Haydock (1m2f, good to soft) in May and at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) last month and it will be no surprise if she rediscovers her progressive thread today.

Spotlight: 4yo who was returning from a long absence when keeping on for seventh of 22 on handicap debut here (1m, good to soft) in March, when coming out on top in the near-side group; he's back from some more time off today but is very unexposed and the step up to 1m2f could be a good move; chance.

Spotlight: Patchy form this year for his new yard but his standout performances in Ireland came on soft/heavy going and he's yet to face such conditions in Britain; interesting contender.

Spotlight: 5yo who is exposed but she's pretty consistent; won at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) in August and respectable fourth there (1m2f, heavy) a fortnight ago; might have an each-way squeak.

Spotlight: 3yo who is bred to be better than his opening mark and he's one to watch in the betting in first-time cheekpieces; however, down the field on all three starts (1m-1m2f) and improvement is needed; unraced on slow ground.

Spotlight: Big odds and unable to get competitive on her first three starts (1m2f/1m3f, good/AW); however, her dam was useful (including on soft ground) and improvement is very much possible on today's handicap debut; it will be interesting to see how she goes in the betting.

Spotlight: It's possible he's gone off the boil based on the evidence of his last two starts (good/heavy) but he's had a good season otherwise, featuring two wins (1m2f, good/soft), and is not discounted.

Spotlight: 3yo who won 10.5f AW maiden in France in February; soundly beaten this autumn on both British starts (1m2f/9.4f, good/AW) but was denied a clear run at Wolverhampton last time and could come good for this yard at some point.
