PLAY SMARTER

BILLY NO MATES was left poorly placed after a tardy start on his most recent outing at York and is interesting now back down in grade having eased a further 2lb in the weights, so he receives the vote The dangers are headed by a pair of 3-y-os in Spritzin’, who appeals as the type to do much better now upped markedly in trip, and Cosmic View, who arrives on the back of a career best.
