Spotlight: Beaten 10l in eighth over 5½f at Saratoga (optional claimer) in July; lightly raced with this just his fourth appearance; others more persuasive.

Spotlight: Beaten 7l into sixth at Colonial Downs two months ago in a black type; dropping in class a definite plus and must enter calculations.

Spotlight: Has found improvement of late; not far behind two of these rivals over 5½f at Saratoga (claimer) when beaten 7l (sixth of eight) six weeks ago; a lot on his plate here and easy enough to take on.

Spotlight: Had two of these rivals behind him (Saratoga) 43 days ago when runner-up at 14-1 (beaten 4l) in a claimer; in for the same $40k tag; tackling an extra 1½f now.

Spotlight: Best form so far in last two starts; last of nine at Saratoga over 1m½f (starter allowance) on debut for this handler five weeks ago; down in trip here.

Spotlight: Last of nine at Saratoga over 5½f (allowance race) five weeks ago; this is his level; runs in claiming company for the first time; might have a say if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success.

Spotlight: Not beaten far here over 6½f (claimer) dropped back in distance last month; up in class (in for $40k); should be thereabouts if building on last performance.

Spotlight: Split two of these rivals six weeks ago at Saratoga when beaten just over 5l (fourth of eight) in a claimer; producing fairly consistent form; in for the same tag ($40k); tackling an extra 1½f now.

Spotlight: Has arguably shown improved form the last twice; ran a good race in defeat when a close runner-up on debut for new trainer 47 days ago at Monmouth Park in a claimer; workout history raises concerns this race may be needed so looks an unlikely winner.

Spotlight: Out of the frame when seventh at Saratoga in August in an allowance race; strong claims as stable in rude health and shown he can win fairly recently.

Spotlight: Finished just behind Hong Kong Phooey when fifth over 5½f at Saratoga (claimer, sloppy track) in July; should not be far away as he finished third at Aqueduct in April.

Spotlight: Beaten 5l in seventh at Colonial Downs six weeks ago in a claimer; now over an extra 1½f; eased in class with tag standing at $40k here.

Spotlight: Ran below market expectations (favourite) when eighth over 1m½f at Saratoga (claimer, yielding) behind Printer's Alley, last month; successful once in eight career outings; drops in trip.

Spotlight: Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Saratoga (beaten 4l) dropped back in distance last month on debut outing for new trainer in an optional claimer; this is his grade; up in distance by an extra 1½f here.

Spotlight: Managed to get on the lead from his wide berth just ahead of I Can See That (yielding) at Saratoga last month when a respectable third in a claimer; admirably consistent and has not had much racing; steps down in trip; in for a $40k tag so up in class ($35k last time).

Spotlight: Respectable effort to finish fourth, beaten 2½l at Delaware Park three weeks ago in an optional claimer; dropped in distance here; $40k claiming tag this time (up from $16k).
