PLAY SMARTER

FOX VISION has run to a fairly useful level when runner-up on his last 2 starts and appeals as the type to find improvement now going handicapping, so he could be ready to get off the mark this time around. Al Alaali ran well on his handicap debut last time and is feared most having been gelded since, with Pjanoo the pick of the remainder.
