Verdict
Though his yard is having a quiet spell, Jack Sparowe is an interesting runner. He's only had half a dozen starts and was far from disgraced on a first run for over 260 days when in mid-division at Newmarket last month. MY AMBITION has already won twice this season from four starts and ran well at a higher level last time when second at Windsor. He's only up a pound for that run so sets the standard with George Bass' claim also in his favour. Marley Head is hard to assess but course and distance scorer Eye Of The Water and seasonal debutant Uncle Dick could go well.
