Spotlight: Four wins from 16 here; not beaten too far when sixth at Cagnes-sur-Mer two months ago in a Listed hurdle; he should go close.

Spotlight: Had four of these rivals behind him (Cagnes-sur-Mer) over Christmas when 12l third in a handicap hurdle; failed to complete last time; specialist here with three wins but doesn't win often; unlikely to make any impact.

Spotlight: Career record shows her ability to win (wins-runs record of 5-23); scored narrowly in a conditions hurdle (Pau) New Year's Eve; despite that success last time, others appeal more.

Spotlight: Towards the rear in a Chantilly handicap last time out; out of the frame when seventh at Cagnes-sur-Mer over Christmas splitting Lou Fast, Dixan Senora and Loquas in a handicap hurdle; unlikely to make any impact with this looking like a hot contest.

Spotlight: Not beaten that far in fifth (13l) here over 2m2f (handicap hurdle) in November; easy to oppose with more demanding test in store.

Spotlight: Pulled up when unfancied here over 2m2f (handicap hurdle) in November; sixth latest; has been in the winners' enclosure once in his career; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

Spotlight: No impression when ninth of 16 here over 2m5½f (Listed handicap hurdle) in November; came home 12th latest; has won three times here; in with a shout.

Spotlight: Got home in front by 2½l at Cagnes-sur-Mer two months ago in a handicap hurdle; fifth latest; has chalked up two wins from his last four; yet to win a race of this value; easy enough to take on.

Spotlight: Got home in front by a head over 2m3f at Pau (handicap hurdle, very heavy) five weeks ago; came home seventh latest; makes limited appeal.

Spotlight: Winning form on the Flat although not scored over fences; not beaten far when runner-up here over 2m2f (handicap hurdle) had four of the horses he faces behind in November; fourth latest; often been there or thereabouts lately; open to progress in this code and likely to be a threat.

Spotlight: Flat record stands at four from 19; beaten 24l into seventh over 2m4f at Cagnes-sur-Mer (conditions hurdle, behind Jour Polaire) over Christmas; runner-up last time; has claims as there is room for further progress in this discipline.

Spotlight: Looking for a eighth career win; beaten 18l (seventh) five weeks ago (very heavy, Pau) in a handicap hurdle; fourth latest; not easy to fancy.

Spotlight: Successful once in his career; was behind Dixan Senora at Cagnes-sur-Mer two months ago posting a respectable effort in a handicap hurdle; fifth latest; is passed over.

Spotlight: Wins have come at a lower level; was sixth of 14, beaten 18l, here over 2m5½f (handicap hurdle) four months ago; strong claims if able to find the same level as when recording last success and he has been dropped in the weights.

Spotlight: Not beaten that far at Fontainebleau nine days ago in a conditions hurdle; managed just one success in his career to date and not made much of an impact recently in handicaps; this demands more than last time so hard to fancy.
