Spotlight Favourite in ten-runner contest over C&D (good to soft) in November for his second handicap and registered a clearcut win, responding well to lead between the last two flights; up 6lb but looks the type to improve further.

Spotlight Seen in a much more positive light last time when stepped up from 2m to 3m for handicap debut here (good; 25-1) and finishing 9l third of 15 from off the pace; has the same mark today and seemingly needs to find a bit more but this looks a weak race.

Spotlight Placed over about 2m/2m1f (also ran well over 1m7f latest start) but underperformed last July when upped to 2m3f and that is the furthest he's been.

Spotlight 0-8 for Paul Webber; confirmed he has some ability on return for new yard and he was travelling okay in third when unseating four out in handicap at Wetherby (upped to 3m; 6-1) three weeks ago; that was a long way out but he needs a second look.

Spotlight Third in mares' maiden races at Lingfield and Southwell on last two starts, latterly over an extended 2m5f; better is needed for this handicap debut but it's not hard to think she can raise her game over 3m+.

Spotlight 2m4f maiden point winner in 2022; third on rules debut in a bumper that November but singularly failed to reproduce the form in three starts over hurdles that season; returns from 671 days off and is tongue tied for handicap debut over a new trip; worth a market check.

Spotlight Placed twice in Irish points; soundly beaten when fourth on all three starts over hurdles, upped to 2m7f for his handicap debut last time; now tries headgear.

Spotlight French-bred 5yo; dark horse as he was soundly beaten over 2m in his three hurdle races (200-1 at Hereford last time) but now tries blinkers and 3m for his handicap debut, representing a red-hot yard; market can guide.

Spotlight Irish point winner; 15l second in a soft-ground bumper here in February but has shown only minor promise front-running in her three hurdle races this season (2m5f, 2m and 2m3f); the new trip needs a major response on this handicap debut and there is some stamina in the pedigree.

Spotlight �50,000 buy after third in Irish point last April; beaten 26l, 46l and 31l in his three maiden hurdles (2m6f, 2m4f and 2m3f) but going handicapping should offer more realistic prospects; 7lb-claiming amateur is recruited.

Spotlight Soundly beaten, including in two handicaps over 3m and another over 2m6f; had wind surgery since latest start, with a tongue-tie also now enlisted, and they need to work wonders.

Spotlight Placed twice in 2m novice hurdles on good ground last June; no great impact in five starts since and he's now 0-18 overall after falling two out in a 2m3f handicap here last time, when minor honours looked a stretch; Flat bred but takes a big step up in trip.

Spotlight Modest dual 1m4f Flat winner; showed something over hurdles in spring 2023 over the minimum trip but little when returned to this sphere for 2m handicap in November; trying an extra mile today is not greatly persuasive.

Spotlight 411 days off before pulled up at 125-1 over fences four weeks ago; also hard to support on 2023 evidence (including twice in cheekpieces) but he was pretty useful before that.
