JEN’S BOY finished well behind Grey Diamond, rated 117, when fourth in maiden company at Chepstow but this looks a weak contest and Nicky Henderson’s charge may figure now handicapping for the first time. Global Rhapsody is another likely to improve on his handicap debut but Hillview Lad was left in second at Warwick when a long way behind the winner and gets additional headgear. Armattiekan needs to improve on last month’s third here though can get involved for last year’s winning yard while Go As You Please may prove best of the rest after a better effort at Market Rasen.
