Remains a maiden despite plenty of attempts but broadly consistent on the Fibresand at Southwell in the early part of this year and was a runner up on her sole visit to this track in August 2016.
Winner on the Kempton Polytrack in March (1m3f), and finished just over 5L third here to Pernickety last month. Dropped 1lb and a previous C&D winner, so likely to figure amongst the placings at least.
11 race maiden and well beaten on the AW in each of his last two starts. Others make much more appeal.
Not at his best on the AW lately, possibly paying the price for a winter over hurdles (runner up to Goal at Taunton in January). Showed fair form from this sort of mark here in April 2016 (head runner up to Tommy's Gael; similar terms) and competitive if bouncing back.
Career record now reads 1 from 21, and is slipping markedly in the weights after five moderate efforts at Southwell during the winter. His sole success came on heavy ground and he's tough to fancy in this contest.
Three time winner at Bath, and returned from an eight month break when beating Cockney Boy by a neck last month (1m3f+ firm). 1lb worse off tonight (ignoring riders claims) on a racing surface with slightly more 'give'.
Tailed off on seasonal bow, and moderate efforts on two previous starts at this track, but showed much improved form when going down narrowly by a neck to Avocadeau at Bath last month. Clear chance of reversing that form from revised terms if able to reproduce that showing.
Off since August 2016 which is obviously a concern, and 0 from 4 at this track; albeit beaten under 2L when third (1m2f) to Iballisticvin in that same month.

Forecasts
Sir Jack (11/4), Tommys Geal (7/2), Cockney Boy (11/2), Go On Gal (6/1), The Juggler (6/1), Innoko (15/2), Avocadeau (9/1), Albert Boy (10/1), Fenner Hill Neasa (25/1)
Cockney Boy could get the better of his Bath conqueror Avocadeau on revised terms with Patrick O'Donnell booked. However, both horses could be forced to play second fiddle to TOMMYS GAEL. Michael Madgwick's mare goes well at this track, and just denied Innoko when winning over C&D in April 2016, on ground which wouldn't be massively dissimilar tonight assuming the forecast showers arrive.
