Spotlight Lucky 15: four horses to back on Thursday

The best four Spotlight tips to include in a Lucky 15 bet today . . .

Silver Ghost 1.50 Doncaster
Short-headed in Newmarket maiden (7f, good to firm) in July on third start and again finished second on nursery debut there (7f, good) last month, keeping on well both times; has a progressive profile; firmly in calculations.

Red Mirage 2.35 Epsom
Absent since running creditably at Chester three months ago; has a good record when fresh, finds a sharp 7f ideal, remains well treated on historical data and is suited by soft ground; respected.

Promethean 4.10 Doncaster
He took a drop back in trip for his handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good) three weeks ago and stayed on strongly for a short-head second; on that evidence the step back up in distance is very much worth a go and his attractive pedigree bolsters that argument; lots to like.

Back In Black 4.40 Doncaster
Runner-up at Yarmouth (good to soft) and Ascot (good to firm; both over 6f) before justifying favouritism with something up his sleeve over 7f back at Yarmouth (good to firm) 24 days ago; looks to be going the right way and he contests this instead of Saturday's Group 2 Champagne Stakes; interesting.
