BILLY BALLOWS (3) isn't a reliable beginner who can do a few things wrong in his races but he's talented and suited in the small field so he's selected to improve and go close. He will have to do everything right though as the speedy last start winner MERCY RAINS (8) is sure to take catching. BOM BOM BANJO (6) and BIG WAL (7) have minor claims.

Comment:Has a handy overall record and he generally races well here but hasn't been showing much pace lately, has some hope but only if he begins on terms.

Comment:Recent Gardens winner in 23.16 but his recent wins have tended to be well spaced and he's likely to be giving away a start, prefer others.

Comment:Can also be tardy early but he's smart having won here in 22.58 in February and he's suited by the small field, look for an improved showing.
