In depth
Verdict
AISH (NAP) showed a marked improvement when stepping into handicap company on his reappearance at Windsor. It would be no surprise if Robert Cowell didn’t find a race or two for him this year over sprint distances. Black Sparrow is only 1-12 on the all-weather and making her debut on Turf but she still makes more appeal than Twentysharesofgrey and Bath winner Nodsasgoodasawink.
