Ain’t Nobody a Stakes First for Sands Of Mali in the Windsor Castle

[Wandering Eyes]

Kevin Ryan trainee Ain't Nobody (Ire) (Sands Of Mali {Fr}–Burmese Waltz {GB}, by Showcasing {GB}) became his first-crop sire's fourth individual winner when notching a decisive debut victory over Carlisle's stiff five furlongs at the end of last month and registered a first black-type success for the Ballyhane Stud resident in Wednesday's Listed Windsor Castle S. at Royal Ascot.

Drawn alongside Stateside challenger Gabaldon (Gone Astray) and caught in the wash as that rival blazed a trail on the stands' side, the 5-1 third choice emerged as the most serious threat to the long-time leader when coming under a Jamie Spencer drive approaching the final furlong and kept on relentlessly to collar Gabaldon in the last 50 yards en route to a one-length tally.
