Spotlight Won Irish point in 2023 and two 2m3f hurdles since but looks a chaser in the making and she lost nothing in defeat on her first go over fences at Worcester (2m7f, soft) in September; shouldn't be far away.

Spotlight Has won both course starts, over hurdles (2m5f, heavy) and then useful form over C&D (good to soft) on second chase start; up 4lb but looks capable of taking higher order over fences.

Spotlight Won 2m7f hurdle here (good to soft) in 2023; was getting it together over fences when last seen at Perth (2m4f, soft) in April and he should have more to come now back over a staying trip; a good option.

Spotlight Career-best form when blinkers replaced cheekpieces in the spring, three wins on heavy included one over 3m6f here; another challenge today, having gone up 21lb in total, but at least easing ground will be a plus.

Spotlight Winning Irish pointer; 2-3 over hurdles, both on soft; encouraging chase debut over C&D last November but he was brought down next time then ran flat when pulled up back here last December; had wind surgery since; has potential but hard to assess after another layoff.

Spotlight Perhaps didn't go on quite as expected after winning a Chepstow maiden hurdle (2m3f, soft) but he looked the type to do better over fences and so it proved on his chase debut at Newton Abbot (2m5f, heavy) when leading close home; up 3lb but this greater stamina test can suit; good claims.

Spotlight Three front-running chase wins at 3m-3m2f, the latest in early 2022; had a less successful time of it last winter though and needs to emerge refreshed from a summer break to figure here; cheekpieces left off.

Spotlight One chase win from six starts, over 2m5f at Ascot (good) in March; should come on for this month's run at Wetherby but others are more certain stayers over a stamina-sapping 3m.

Spotlight Lightly raced over the years; possibilities on her best staying hurdle form and she was a point winner in 2020, but she goes chasing quite late in life and this looks a tough introduction on return from a break.

Spotlight Progressed well over fences last season, which ended with a 3m6f win at Chepstow (soft) in March; said to have stopped quickly when out the back on last month's return; probably other days after that.

Spotlight Early chase promise two winters ago but fallow last season and he didn't immediately spring back to life over hurdles for new yard at Cheltenham recently; temptingly treated but needs to show what ability remains and whether this tough 3m is what's wanted.

Spotlight Bright start to chase career when C&D winner (good to soft) last November but he couldn't kick on in novice handicaps after and the return to hurdles ended with him being pulled up when last seen in April; he might be all the better for a break so not ruled out on the earlier promise.

Spotlight Course winner whose five other wins have come at Newton Abbot, the latest two in small-field staying races over fences and hurdles; probably has share of weight now and he didn't shine at Wincanton last month.

Spotlight Forged ahead late on chase debut over C&D (good; hurdle winner on soft) in November 2022 but has suffered heavy defeats in just three runs since, the latest here last month; best watched for now.
