Spotlight Point and dual bumper winner; disappointed when among the market principals for Grade 2 Aintree bumper in April but created very good impression when scoring by 7l at Wetherby (soft) two starts ago and looks a very good prospect for novice hurdles this season.

Spotlight Half-brother to useful jumpers Lord Baddesley and Robins Reef; no match for very exciting prospect when second of 20 in Newbury bumper (good to soft) in March but that still goes down as a very promising debut, and he needs to be taken very seriously on this hurdling debut.

Spotlight Placed in both Irish points, latterly when second on yielding ground last month; with good stable for rules career and well worth a glance in the betting.

Spotlight Well beaten on last month's hurdling debut in Ireland and managed just a respectable third at Kempton (2m, good) for new stable ten days ago; others look much stronger here.

Spotlight Never really got competitive when 28-1 for last month's debut at Worcester (2m, soft) but kept on steadily in the home straight and is Harry Skelton's pick of the three Dan Skelton-trained runners here; possible improver.

Spotlight Came second on debut at Southwell (good to soft) in February and made a lot of the running before fading into fifth at Ludlow (2m, good) in April; can improve this season but has fitness to prove today.

Spotlight Won good-ground course bumper in April but managed only fourth when odds-on for hurdling debut in June and suffered quite nasty experience when brought down in early stages at Ludlow last month; seemingly overlooked by Harry Skelton today and might be one for further down the line.

Spotlight First foal from a useful Flat/hurdle winner; kept on for second of nine in good-ground course bumper on debut last October but we haven't seen him again since and Harry Skelton evidently prefers Jumbo Mills today.

Spotlight Out of an unraced half-sister to top-class chaser Master Minded; displayed clear promise when keeping-on fourth in good-ground Market Rasen bumper in May but finished behind Jafimgoso there and needs improvement here.

Spotlight Displayed clear promise on Irish point debut and in bumpers last season but did not emerge from the rear division on his two hurdling starts this autumn (2m2f/2m) and Sean Bowen evidently prefers Castle Ivers.

Spotlight Runner-up on bumper debut at Market Rasen (good to soft) a year ago but has not yet built on that success and showed only minor promise on hurdling debut in May.

Spotlight Had luck on his side when winning good-ground Irish point in May and was struggling from fairly early stage (albeit in a good race) on last month's hurdling debut at Cheltenham (2m4f); best watched for now.

Spotlight Pulled up in both Irish points last season and makes his hurdling debut against some very promising rivals.

Spotlight Made quite promising bumper debut at Fontwell (good to soft) in May but posed no serious threat in three novice/maiden hurdles this autumn (2m-2m1f) and needs to take a big step forward here.

Spotlight Not beaten far in two good-ground bumpers this summer but struggled (albeit on soft ground) when 150-1 for last month's hurdling debut.

Spotlight Ex-Irish mare who was soundly beaten in two Stratford hurdles (2m2f/2m) in early part of this season; needs subsequent wind op to have made a massive difference.
