Spotlight: Won three handicaps over this sort of distance in Britain in 2025 including a career best in a Class 2 handicap on Derby Day at Epsom; promise on dirt this UAE season both here and Jebel Ali, although the form of his third here last time has been knocked since; could yet have more to give back on this surface and not ruled out.

Spotlight: Dual course winner, the latest success over 1m1f in December; respectable efforts in defeat twice since, the latest at 1m but 1m2f seems to stretch him and others make a bit more appeal.

Spotlight: Abu Dhabi (7f) winner last season and getting back with every run this term; didn't get the best of trips when runner-up over slightly shorter trip to this last month; unexposed and is a big player from just 1lb higher.

Spotlight: Kicked off 2025 with back-to-back turf wins; lost his way later in the campaign and hasn't really taken to dirt more recently; back on his last winning mark and not ruled out back on preferred surface.

Spotlight: No wins since 2023; had a tough trip, covering a lot of ground when finishing runner-up to Sean here last month; that's not the strongest race around and he's up 2lb but hard to rule out if he gets a better trip.

Spotlight: Dual dirt winner, scoring on seasonal return but has struggled in four runs since including a turf outing over C&D last month; beaten 10l on yard debut a fortnight ago and while the handicapper is trying to give him a chance (dropped 5lb), he's hard to recommend.

Spotlight: Dual winner in France and not beaten far in two course starts over a bit shorter; eased another 2lb, a bit further will help and there could still be more to come on just his third run for this trainer.

Spotlight: Distant third to Shepperton Lodge on return (form knocked since) and got his head in front for the first time with a 1m3f Abu Dhabi success in December; has run well in defeat twice since and may do so again but could bump into some better-handicapped sorts.

Spotlight: 7f winner for Charlie Johnston in September 2024; hasn't taken to dirt in four runs for this yard and doesn't look well treated on anything he's achieved to date.

Spotlight: Got his head back in front on dirt at Jebel Ali in December but beaten 24l here since and needs to prove himself on turf.

Spotlight: 1m4f winner here for Charlie Appleby two years ago; ran okay for new yard on sole start last term but hasn't beaten many home in three recent course starts, all over further; needs to prove he's as effective at 1m2f.

Spotlight: Has won six turf races in Spain since sole success in Britain in 2020; last month's UAE debut wasn't devoid of promise but he needs further than this and he has a wide draw.

Spotlight: Won twice for Aidan O'Brien, including over this trip at Navan last season; feasibly treated on best form but has shown little in two runs here for new yard; return to 1m2f should help at least.

Spotlight: 1m4f winner on yard debut last season; hasn't kicked on since, although scored on AW at Pau in November; not as good on dirt latest, tough mark and has the widest draw to overcome.
