Spotlight: Made it 2-5 since being gelded when winning at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; he's won twice on Polytrack at Dundalk; this in-form Irish challenger holds solid claims up 4lb for last time.

Spotlight: 2yo Listed runner-up in September 2024 for Richard Fahey; 0-9 last year but has a dangerous mark to work with on his first start for a new trainer, who can do well with recruits from other yards (remains in the same ownership); interesting, all the more so if attracting market support.

Spotlight: Below best on both runs this year but failed to settle at Kempton last time, when a wide draw also didn't help; twice went close at Kempton (6f) towards the end of last year and this C&D winner is not written off.

Spotlight: Without a win since landing two in a row on the Dundalk Polytrack (6f/7f) in late 2024, and below par there in February last time; however, he's produced some positive performances this winter and has edged back down the weights; might not be far away.

Spotlight: Ended a long losing run at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in January and he also won at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) in February; he's continued in good form on Tapeta on his last two starts and is also effective over this C&D; might have a part to play.

Spotlight: Won on stable debut at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) in November and he's continued in good heart in the main on Tapeta subsequently; each-way chance.

Spotlight: Won over C&D last June on sole previous course visit and in good form at end of 2025; can be forgiven his run at Newcastle on New Year's Day as he was hampered; could be a contender if fully tuned up after three-month break.

Spotlight: C&D winner who won three in a row over 6f on Polytrack elsewhere at the end of last year; some reasonable efforts since but needs to build on those if he's to return to winning ways today; withdrawn at Kempton last month when his nose was stuck in the stall (18-1 at the time).

Spotlight: Won over 5f here in January and rallied for 1l second of five over 5f here last time; it's possible 5f is his optimum trip nowadays but he won over today's C&D in 2024 and could be in the shake-up if seeing it out.

Spotlight: Won at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) last month and he failed to settle when well beaten from a wide draw over 6f there next time; however, all of his wins have come at 5f and he has something to prove kept to 6f.

Spotlight: 9yo who is inconsistent and hasn't shone on his last three starts but he went close at Kempton (6f) in February and he's finished in the first two on seven of his 11 previous runs on the AW here (including when runner-up in this in 2024); he's well worth a second look now back here.

Spotlight: Won over C&D in January and short-headed here (5f) three days later; however, his subsequent form hasn't come up to scratch; has to raise his game.
