The Punt Acca: Harry Wilson with three fancies from Southwell, Warwick and Wolverhampton on Friday

Three horses to include in a treble on Friday

My Boy Jack (3.37 Wolverhampton)

My Boy Jack hasn't won for a year and a half, but there are a few reasons to expect him to bounce back here. His three wins have been achieved over course and distance – this is his first start over track and trip since finishing a close second here in October – and all when wearing headgear, so the visor going back on looks interesting given he hasn't worn equipment since March. The booking of Billy Loughnane looks a sign of intent and he's well drawn in stall four.

He Knows Better (3.47 Warwick)

He Knows Better has made a promising start to his chasing career, looking set to throw down a big challenge when falling at the second last on his debut in this sphere before finishing second in a 2m7½f handicap chase at Huntingdon last time. He looked a touch outpaced before rallying that day, shaping as though this longer trip may suit, and Racing Post Ratings of 120 and 119 suggest this mark of 111 isn't beyond him.

Mayo County (5.45 Southwell)

Mayo County has caught the eye on her last two starts since returning from 139 days off in December, repeatedly not getting a clear run when looking in need of her return over course and distance before chasing home an improver in refitted cheekpieces at Newcastle last time. She fared by far the best of those off the pace that day and pulled well clear of the third, who has won since to frank the form. She's just 2lb higher here and can go one better.
