RACING POST VERDICT
Preference is for PLAY BY THE RULES who can build on earlier promise and take advantage of a reduced mark here
Racing Post Pick
Play By The Rules
Our Expert Tip
Adam Nicol for me is a very underrated trainer and does very well when buying horses from other yards.
PLAY BY THE RULES was unlucky to be brought down last time out and this once 75-rated flat horse, who also had a hurdles rating as high as 100, gets into tomorrow’s chase off just 75. To me this is the best bet on today’s card and I feel he will be winning here.
