Spotlight: 3-5 in last season's 2yo campaign and good second in the Guineas Trial at Meydan (1m, good) in January when last seen; it's a sizeable absence to defy but he has the potential to be better than this mark; respected.

Spotlight: Won at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last month on first run beyond a sprint trip; only fourth of eight at Ascot (7f, good to firm) since but remains of interest in view of his penultimate effort.

Spotlight: Made it four wins from his last ten starts when scoring on the other Newmarket course (7f, good to firm) last month; merely mid-division under a penalty at York (1m, good to soft) since but it wasn't a bad performance and he's 4lb lower today and back at 7f; not discounted.

Spotlight: In good form on fast ground in July prior to winning at Lingfield (7f, AW), and he followed up at Sandown (7f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; into a tougher race today but this 4yo is clearly on the up and is one to consider for last year's winning yard.

Spotlight: Just two wins from his 21 starts but placed at Goodwood (7f, good to soft) and Ascot (7f, good to firm) in the second half of this year and beaten just under 2l when seventh of 16 at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last Saturday; might not be far away.

Spotlight: His losing run is up to 16 and this inconsistent 5yo failed to threaten at Ascot three weeks ago, while he's 2lb out of the weights this afternoon; however, he was beaten just a head on the other Newmarket course (6f, good) two starts ago and stays 7f; not ruled out each-way.

Spotlight: He's 3lb out of the handicap for this hat-trick bid, with his two recent wins having come in single-figure fields at Epsom (7f, good to soft); he's back up in grade and on better ground and at a different track, but is obviously in good heart and is not discounted.

Spotlight: In good form at Meydan and Saudi Arabia last winter before below-par run at Meydan in March; returns with his trainer among the winners but his last win was at 1m1f and this trip may prove inadequate.

Spotlight: 2yo Group 3 winner whose 3yo form has been mixed but he was a close Listed fourth at Chester (7f, good) in July and suffered a torrid passage when down the field in a handicap there (7.5f, good to soft) latest; not ruled out.

Spotlight: The vast majority of his recent racing has come at 5f and he's unraced at 7f; however, he wasn't stopping at the line when third here (6f, good) last Saturday and this trip is worth a go.

Spotlight: Lightly raced 3yo who made a promising start to his career and is dropping down the weights, but for good reason in view of his last few performances; needs to turn things around in a first-time hood.

Spotlight: 3yo who won at Epsom (7f, good) in July on final outing for George Boughey; one to watch in the betting but beaten a long way at big odds on his three runs for this stable.
