      Verdict

      Black Sparrow comes out best at the weights but missed the break in a handicap over track and trip earlier in the week and finished well behind third-placed CAMPACHOOCHOO. That was a return to form from Robyn Brisland’s filly and she should also have the measure of My Best Friend on these terms. The latter gets a change of headgear today but the remainder are hard to recommend.
