Curragh trainer Michael O'Callaghan sent over Night Sparkle to land the feature race on Newmarket's Saturday card, the JenningsBet Fillies´ Handicap over 1m6f.

Always prominent in the hands of James Doyle, the 9/2 chance gave weight away all around and came home a length-and-three-quarters clear of Grand Providence.

Completing a mixed four-timer, the progressive daughter of Postponed has scooped over 51k sterling in total on her last two visits to Britain having won a similarly valuable handicap at Newbury last month.
