Spotlight: 1-5 for Charlie Johnston, the win coming in a Southwell maiden (7f, Tapeta; first-time hood) early last year; makes her stable debut after another 164 days off having changed hands for 20,000gns in October; market useful.

Spotlight: Not prolific (3-31) but his record at this track reads 15244461 and he did it well when scoring over this trip last month; up 6lb but still feasibly treated on previous form if he has turned a corner.

Spotlight: Has regressed since making a winning debut for Ed Walker at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last June, including in four starts on the AW (in this headgear combination) since joining this yard; hard to recommend at present.

Spotlight: Five of his six AW wins have come at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta), but the other came over this C&D; ran a blinder after 472 days off when third of 11 behind a thriving rival back at Wolverhampton (7f) a fortnight ago and respected off the same mark, provided this doesn't come too soon.

Spotlight: Winless in his first 12 starts but ended last season with two wins over C&D in October; up just another 2lb, but hard to know how ready he will be after 166 days off; market may help.

Spotlight: Still 6lb above his last winning mark and not seen in 138 days, but he was returning from a similar absence when making a successful debut for this yard over C&D a year ago; each-way claims.

Spotlight: Again looked stretched by 1m here last month, with all six wins coming over 7f on the AW including four here; drawn wider than ideal, but is back off his last winning mark and he has to make the shortlist under his optimum conditions.

Spotlight: Down Royal maiden winner (7f, soft) last September; ran well when fourth of seven on AW/handicap debut at Dundalk (1m, Polytrack) in November; still unexposed and makes his stable debut after five months off; market useful.

Spotlight: Both AW wins have come over 7f/1m here; just 1lb above his last winning mark, but ended last season quietly and will do well to win this on his first start in six months.

Spotlight: 2lb higher than when winning by a nose over C&D last September and may have needed her reappearance here in February, but others are still more compelling.

Spotlight: All five wins over 7f on good or softer ground on turf; not set the world alight in three goes on Polytrack and has no great record fresh; looks one for another day.

Spotlight: All four wins have come over 6f on fast turf, but he has run well over C&D; has been successsful after a similar absence in the past and stable going well, but he will need luck from the widest stall; opposed on balance.

Spotlight: All eight AW wins have come over 6f/7f here, but now at the vetran stage and losing run up to 28; best watched unless the market suggests a resurgence is imminent.
