Spotlight: Gelded before his handicap debut and he rewarded good market support to beat 12 others at Kempton (7f, AW) in May; run of seconds on good/good to firm followed and he wasn't disgraced when sixth of 13 in a Racing League handicap back on AW last time; drop back to 6f and soft ground are imponderables but still respected.

Spotlight: Bitter disappointment at Ascot in May but otherwise consistent over 6f this year, including when he bumped into one on AW 12 days ago; not proving easy to win with off this mark but has run well on soft before and he's a player again.

Spotlight: Lingfield maiden winner in January who showed turf was no problem when fourth, despite pulling hard, on good to firm at Newbury (7f) in July; posted a solid third in first-time cheekpieces at Kempton (6f, AW) last month; also; soft ground would be an unknown but still needs considering with Oisin Murphy retaining the ride.

Spotlight: 0-4 on turf but he's proved progressive on AW this year, winning six times including off 4lb lower at Chelmsford in May; good second off this mark at Southwell (also 6f, AW) a fortnight ago; solid chance if he can transfer that form to turf this time.

Spotlight: Seven-time AW winner whose seven starts here have yielded six places, including when narrowly making his turf breakthrough over C&D (good to soft; visored; Arnaz third) in May; has remained in good nick since and was a close fourth of 14 at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) in first-time blinkers last month; same mark and he's one of the more solid options.

Spotlight: Won off 3lb higher at Newmarket (6f, good) just over a year ago so of interest from a handicapping perspective; good third of ten over that C&D (good to soft) on his last completed start but was pulled out at Sandown last time on account of soft conditions, the third time he's been scratched for that reason.

Spotlight: Bright start when placed in three qualifying runs, including when making all at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in March; has found life tougher in handicaps and was gelded after finishing 24l adrift at York in June; off since and needs to rediscover that initial form; would be a player if he does; first-time tongue-tie.

Spotlight: All starts on AW or sound turf; off the mark at the ninth attempt when winning a Southwell maiden (6f, AW) one month ago and similar form, despite not looking to quite get home, when third in a 7f Kempton handicap (AW) a fortnight ago; drop back to 6f should help and acts on turf but soft ground would raise a question.

Spotlight: Dual winner who won a maiden on soft ground at Redcar for Karl Burke last May; patchy form since winning a Wolverhampton handicap (also 6f, AW) in March and he left George Boughey for 17,000gns after trailing in last of five at Nottingham (5f, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie/blinkers) in July; headgear removed for this stable debut.

Spotlight: Best form from five starts in France when close third of 13 in a Chantilly AW maiden in March; fetched 28,000gns after finishing third in a Dieppe maiden (5.5f, heavy) in June; subsequently gelded; opening mark doesn't look to have left anything to chance but market may help ahead of this stable/handicap debut.
