Spotlight: Won three races for Charlie Hills last year, including on his final run for the trainer at 1m on AW; built on yard debut at Kempton when third of 15 over extended 1m1f here last month and shaped like a return to this trip would suit; interesting back at this distance but will need a career best.

Spotlight: Sole win came over 7f on AW in Britain; caught the eye on first run since a gelding operation at Newcastle and similar story at Jebel Ali on dirt debut in January; met trouble in-running on mile debut when sixth over C&D last week and ought to go well from 1lb lower.

Spotlight: Dual AW winner in Britain (7f/1m) and came on from his UAE debut to finish runner-up over 7f three weeks ago; 3lb higher but return to further likely to suit and one for the shortlist.

Spotlight: Soft ground Doncaster maiden winner in 2024 and beaten 7l in a Doncaster novice on sole start in 2025; bought for 50,000gns since and while 1m is probably fine, he's probably best watched after 287 days off.

Spotlight: Unplaced in four runs here last term but returned with Kempton (1m) success in October; two respectable efforts in defeat over a bit furrther here since and a return to 1m may help but has a tough task from stall 14.

Spotlight: Listed-placed in France and has run with credit in two UAE starts this season, catching the eye from rear over C&D last week; left on the same mark, much better draw and likely to go well again.

Spotlight: Hit the crossbar in two outings at Abu Dhabi but failed to build on that when sixth of 14 over 7f here three weeks ago; has shaped like a return to this trip may suit and hard to rule out.

Spotlight: Career best dirt success over 6f at Sharjah but couldn't build on that back on turf here (5f) and stamina doubts back at this distance.

Spotlight: Course winner who returned from a mammoth absence to finish fifth of 15 over 6f here in December; should come on for that and he's down to a dangerous mark but he has stamina to prove on first try at 1m.

Spotlight: Won both 2yo starts in Britain; didn't add to that last year but ran well in defeat and wasn't beaten far on last week's UAE debut; may come on for that but suspicion he'll be more effective when returned to further.

Spotlight: C&D winner who ran with credit when staying on over 7f on last month's return; step back up in trip will probably suit and while this demands a career best, he's an each-way player.

Spotlight: Carlisle maiden winner who has struggled from this sort of mark on both dirt and turf here this season.

Spotlight: Four wins at 7f in France; slowly coming to hand this UAE season but stall 16 makes life tough this time and shaped like a return to 7f may help over C&D latest.

Spotlight: Made all in 7f Newbury handicap in August; two good AW runs over 7f for new yard and probably found 6f against him on UAE debut three weeks ago; stamina to prove at this trip but has a good draw for preferred tactics.

Spotlight: Gained first win over this trip at Abu Dhabi last season but below form this campaign and down the order on jockey bookings.

Spotlight: Form figures of 221 in Britain back in 2023 in three runs for Charlie Appleby; bought for 60,000UAE in 2024 and can only be watched after 961 days off the track (bar recent 5f dirt trial when showing very little); wide draw to cope with too.
