Spotlight: Won two Grade 3 bumpers in France and she made it 2-5 in novice hurdles when scoring cosily at Market Rasen (2m, soft) last month; also effective on good ground; in top hands and could be better than her opening mark.

Spotlight: Point winner who has improved with each of her three hurdle runs, finishing clear of the rest when second at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) recently; that was a likeable effort and she could be in the mix on handicap debut.

Spotlight: Point winner who has improved with each of her three hurdle runs, going close at Ludlow (2m, soft) last month; the winner has followed up in a handicap, suggesting there should be mileage in this mare's opening mark.

Spotlight: Runner-up in two novice hurdles towards end of last year (2m/2m5f, good/good to soft) and filled the same position when beaten half a length on last month's handicap debut at Ludlow (2m, soft); she was well clear of the third last time and could play another leading role even now 4lb higher.

Spotlight: Went close at Taunton (2m, good to soft) in January on second hurdle start and improved again to win there (2m, heavy) last month; could continue to progress now switched to handicaps and she's one to consider.

Spotlight: Bumper winner (good to soft) who had been headed but was disputing second when falling two out at Wincanton (2m4f, soft) in December on her sole handicap start; she's since easily won a maiden at Catterick (1m7f, good) and she could be progressive; not discounted.

Spotlight: Fourth in warm novice hurdle against males at Newbury (2m, good to soft) in January and runner-up to Beauty In The Park at Taunton (2m, heavy) next time, beaten just over 3l; she's 6lb better off with the winner on this handicap debut and could have a part to play in a first-time tongue-tie.

Spotlight: Won two novice hurdles last May (2m/2m1f) and she could benefit from this drop back in trip; however, she hasn't shone in handicaps this winter and others are more compelling, including stablemate First Candidate.

Spotlight: Good-ground bumper winner who has run well in defeat on two of her three hurdle starts, most recently runner-up at Catterick (1m7f, good) in December; has had wind op since; makes handicap debut off workable mark and she's the sole runner here today for her in-form southern trainer; interesting.

Spotlight: Two wins (1m7f/2m, good to soft/heavy) from her first three starts for this yard and perhaps her latest run at Newbury three weeks ago came too soon, just six days after she won at Fontwell; not discounted.

Spotlight: One win from her six hurdle starts, which came at Wetherby (2m, soft) in November; performed respectably in fifth in Grade 2 novice at Kempton (2m, good to soft) last month and she's not ruled out in her first handicap.

Spotlight: Five-time Flat winner (including on good ground) who won at Hexham (2m, heavy) in December on second hurdle start; 6l second of 14 behind improving winner on handicap hurdle debut at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) last month and could still be capable of better in this code in view of her Flat form.

Spotlight: Capitalised on the two market leaders exiting the race three out in four-runner maiden hurdle at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft) on Boxing Day; she's unexposed and in good hands but finished down the field on last month's handicap debut at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft); improvement needed.

Spotlight: Bumper winner who was runner-up on her first two hurdle starts (2m/2m1f, soft/good to soft); disappointing favourite at Hereford (2m, soft) since but she failed to settle and was hampered a couple of times; retains potential and she's not ruled out each-way on handicap debut.

Spotlight: Two-time point runner-up (including on good to yielding) who has finished second on her last two starts, most recently on handicap debut at Exeter (2m, heavy); she was beaten 5l in that four-runner race last time but it looked a warm little contest and she may have more to offer.
