Spotlight Fair debut effort (Delta Downs, 7½f) at 22-1 two weeks ago; could improve from his debut but will need to with tougher test on the cards.

Spotlight Shares a dam with Coffee Bar, a 1m winner; Gregory Foley newcomers always need to be taken seriously at Fair Grounds; has plenty of trackwork under his belt; entitled to respect as some good aspects to his profile.

Spotlight Pedigree shows he may improve with time; trainer has a good record with newcomers; rates a likely contender as some good aspects to his profile and stable is in good order.

Spotlight Still looking to open his account after three runs but related to Stakes winner Armando R; seventh of eight beaten 18l (muddy track) at Louisiana Downs in August in a stakes; likely to be a threat now dropping in class.

Spotlight Well held fourth when favourite for seven-runner event in a maiden claimer at Delta Downs 21 days ago; must be respected despite this step up in class and he has shown signs of promise in the past.

Spotlight Finished ninth and beaten 16l first time out at Louisiana Downs at 16-1 three months ago; must make above-average progress to figure.

Spotlight Well behind the third, Dubaian Money, (Delta Downs, 5f) in blinkers when seventh of ten on his debut at 28-1 four weeks ago; needs to make above-average progress.

Spotlight Some promise; closest he has come to winning after five starts was a second; fair effort last month (Delta Downs) when little between him and Cajun Coaster (eighth) in a maiden special weight; notable jockey booking; should prove competitive if building on most recent effort.

Spotlight Bred to get better as he gets older; sire offers hope the distance might suit; this doesn't look easy against experienced rivals so would be a surprise to see this one figure.

Spotlight Beaten 25l on his debut at Keeneland at 13-2 last month; related to Stakes winner The Wine Steward and nicely bred (by Authentic); he's worth a go as has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come and the penny could well drop today.

Spotlight Shane Wilson team does well at Fair Grounds with debutants; must be high on list with signs of encouragement in profile and could be a speedy type on breeding.

Spotlight Promoted from fourth to third on debut (Louisiana Downs, 5½f) at 6-4 in August; progress needed on this second career run.

Spotlight Favourite on his debut 36 days ago but not able to deliver at Delta Downs (not far behind Rayden And Remi); likely there is more to come; related to Stakes winner Relentless Dancer; should be better for that run.

Spotlight Regular trackwork dispels any fitness concerns; trainer's stats offers some hope; first race for the son of Requite; fascinating to see how this one goes in the market on this first appearance.

Spotlight Not yet off the mark in four attempts although has finished third; fair effort when beaten 8l, finishing sixth of ten over 5f at Delta Downs (maiden special weight) two weeks ago (sloppy track) on debut for this trainer; unchartered territory as he moves up in trip.
