Spotlight: Enhanced good record here with C&D win (good) in August and back on the scoresheet at Pontefract (5f, good) last month; no match for the winner when second at Catterick (5f, good) since but could still give a good account.

Spotlight: Very hit and miss and he's won just once from 23 attempts, but he returned to form with a close third of 20 at Ayr (5f, good to soft) last month and can be in the mix if backing up that performance.

Spotlight: Returned from wind surgery with a win over C&D (good) last month and heavy ground may not have suited at Hamilton eight days later; could bounce back and play a leading role this afternoon.

Spotlight: Has dropped down the weights and this headstrong sort could be suited by today's first crack at 5f; however, she has to perform better than on her last few starts, the most recent at Southwell (6f, AW) on Saturday.

Spotlight: He's been in good form since these cheekpieces went on, winning at Carlisle (5f, good) in August and finishing third on his last two starts (5f, good/heavy), including over C&D when denied a clear run; entitled to respect.

Spotlight: Only sixth at Pontefract last Monday after two wins in a row at Newcastle and he's 5-15 on AW as opposed to 1-22 on turf, but that sole grass win came over C&D (good) in June and he's capable of having a big say.

Spotlight: 0-10 this year but she won twice over C&D (good/soft) last year and has been runner-up over C&D (good) on her last two starts; every chance that she will be bang there once more.

Spotlight: He's on a dangerous mark but this regressive 5yo was only fifth of eight over C&D in May when last seen and others have more pressing claims.

Spotlight: Not at the top of her game on her two starts last month but she won off this mark at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) in June and she's 2-2 here; well worth a second look.

Spotlight: Made it 0-13 when mid-division at Ayr (5f, good to soft) last month but she produced some good form over 6f there in the summer, and it may yet turn out that she's suited by 5f; not ruled out each-way.

Spotlight: Two-time C&D winner who twice finished placed in August and is well treated on that form, but this 9yo has finished down the field on his last two starts and needs to turn things around.

Spotlight: Two-time C&D winner, including this race in 2024, and he won twice this summer; not at the top of his game on either outing last month (including here) but he's not written off.

Spotlight: She's had a disappointing campaign but has dropped to a basement mark and she won over C&D in April 2025 on her last visit to Musselburgh; her course form figures read 0413261 and perhaps the return to this track will trigger a revival.

Spotlight: Showed ability during last season's light 2yo campaign, including over C&D, but she's struggled to make an impact this year.
