PLAY SMARTER WARRANTY made a pleasing start for Gary Moore when second at Fontwell last month and can build upon that to gain a first hurdles win here. American Gerry is another with potential to improve on his current mark, and though Sofia’s Rock won only a seller last time, he’s clearly well treated if able to get back in the groove in handicaps.
