Spotlight: Hood fitted for handicaps; snug win over C&D then scored emphatically under a 5lb penalty at Chelmsford (also 1m); she's 9lb well in under the same penalty this evening; tough to beat if another quick run doesn't find her out; rail draw.

Spotlight: Yet to win but another good run for these connections when finishing off nicely for third behind Dubai Beach over C&D a fortnight ago, having been dropped in from a wide draw; is better berthed tonight and could easily place again.

Spotlight: Just the one blip in handicap company and made all for the second time 26 days ago; wide draw might make life difficult but he doesn't have to lead to win; respected up 5lb.

Spotlight: Course wins achieved over 1m/7f but proved he stays 1m2f when runner-up at Chelmsford 20 days ago (conceded first run but saw it out well); nudged up 2lb for that effort and first-time headgear probably needs to eke out a bit more.

Spotlight: 28-1 winner under Nicola Currie on debut at Southwell (7f) then chased home Kon Tiki and Life Is Beautiful (both ran in Group company at Royal Ascot last week) over C&D; raced freely when bitterly disappointing favourite kept to novice company over 1m2f at Goodwood last month; comes back to 1m for her first handicap and she could be competitive.

Spotlight: Made winning handicap debut at Southwell in April (7f) and ran well under a 6lb penalty a few days later (8.6f); less competitive the last twice, possibly caught out by a sharp 7f when hanging right in first-time blinkers (retained) at Lingfield last week; this test should suit better.

Spotlight: C&D novice winner last year; gelded over the winter; involved in a couple of rough races this time around but finished weakly regardless; need to see more before he's considered bet material.

Spotlight: Main market rival, and subsequent Listed winner, didn't fire when she won with plenty in hand on debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f); finished four places behind Stateira in a hot C&D novice next time before running no race on handicap debut at Chelmsford (1m2f; 28-1); plenty to prove back in trip; tongue-tie goes on.

Spotlight: Improved with each start on Tapeta at two, culminating in win at Southwell over this trip; first go on turf and in handicaps was fine but he was soundly beaten last time; this is a tough race in which to try and bounce back.

Spotlight: Didn't really threaten last year but is well handicapped as a result; best watched on return, emerging from widest stall; cheekpieces return.

Spotlight: Won novice here at two (7f); confidence-boosting win at odds of 1-10 in 1m2f Lingfield claimer in May following monster layoff; suffered heavy defeat on handicap/turf debut at Chester latest and this is quite a quick turnaround; drops back in trip; safer elsewhere.

Spotlight: Breakthrough win came in 7f nursery at Chelmsford last December and the way he hit the line suggests this new trip of 1m will suit; up 4lb; not seen since and others might be sharper; wears less-severe headgear this time (cheekpieces replace blinkers).
