Verdict
Grey Boy had stable companion AGGBAG and Escardo behind when winning at Bath on Friday but there's every chance that form will be reversed here. The second named appeared to be travelling best of all with a quarter-mile to go that day but didn't pick up as expected. However, he is 6lb better off now. Stuart Williams' team has made a quiet start to the campaign so Swansea Jack may be best watched on his reappearance but Lily Wood was only beaten a nose at Wolverhampton last month and could go close again.
