lottos

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'draws' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'group to scale initially' is the wordplay.
'group' becomes 'lot' ().
'initially' says to take the initial letters.
The first letter of 'scale' is 's'.
'lot'+'to'+'s'='LOTTOS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for lottos that I've seen is " Games".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
