Spotlight: Made it sixth-time lucky over C&D in July and appreciated the return to the AW when fourth of 11 at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) last month with three of these behind (winner has gone in again since); leading player.

Spotlight: Fourth in a Newcastle novice (7f, Tapeta) in June on second start but not so good on either start since, including handicap debut at Southwell (1m; first start since gelded) last month; resurgence needed.

Spotlight: Both wins this year have come over further, the latest at Southwell (1m4f) in June, but finished close up when third of nine over this C&D (first-time blinkers) last time; only 1lb higher, but could have been better drawn.

Spotlight: 0-8 and didn't run very well at Bath (1m2f, good to firm) eight days ago, but placed in his first four handicaps including in both starts over C&D; shortlisted back here with blinkers given a go.

Spotlight: 0-8, coming closest to winning when beaten a head on stable debut at Carlisle (1m1f, good) last month; not so good when fifth of 14 in the legends race at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) 13 days later, but is a half-brother to a three-time winner around here; worth a second look, especially if backed

Spotlight: Won first two Tapeta handicaps last winter and back-to-form third at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) last time, form since boosted by the first two; 1lb below last winning mark but drawn wider than ideal and unraced on Polytrack.

Spotlight: Appreciated the switch to testing conditions when making it third-time lucky in a Windsor novice (6f, soft; 40-1) last month; steps up 2f in trip for this handicap/AW debut, but should stay on breeding; shortlisted.

Spotlight: Two wins at 7f/1m in the summer, including handicap debut here; needs to put a modest effort at Ayr (1m, soft) last month behind him, but back to last winning mark and the return here may suit; visor replaces cheekpieces.

Spotlight: Showed good form in her first three starts at the beginning of the year, including twice over C&D, but hasn't maintained it in three handicaps; down another 3lb, but needs the return here to galvanise her.

Spotlight: 0-5 and hasn't built on early promise; down again in grade but needs to get back on track; hood removed after one use.

Spotlight: Landed a Newcastle maiden (6f, Tapeta) just under a year ago and ran well when third of nine there (7f) 13 days ago (runner-up has won since), but another furlong may not be what he wants; drawn wide too.

Spotlight: Ten-race maiden who ran well in his first six starts, but out of the frame in his last four in handicap company (well backed penultimate run); cheekpieces return, but no experience of Polytrack and has the outside stall.

Spotlight: Fourth in a Redcar maiden (7f, good to firm) in August on third start but well held on handicap debut at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) last month; the extra furlong and switch to AW need to give him a boost.

Spotlight: Three wins at around 1m earlier in the year including at Lingfeld (Polytrack) and Newcastle (Tapeta); back off his last winning mark but he has a bit to find with a few of these on recent running and has a tricky draw.
