Airshow can reach for the Sky in Windsor handicap
- Airshow can put on a winning display today in the Sky Bet Top Price Promise Handicap at Windsor.
Rod Millman's charge boasts a higher all-weather rating than his turf mark and appears more than capable of taking advantage of that judged on his recent narrow second place at Newmarket.
His stats on artificial surfaces are impressive, winning two of his three starts, but after finishing just a short head behind Prevent at Headquarters, he is clearly no back number on grass.
Airshow tried to do it the hard way that day and was only eventually headed in the final stride, offering plenty of optimism for the rest of the summer.
The handicapper has jacked up his perch a little in the interim, but a mark of 84 still gives Millman something to work with.
