Jetz maintained his win-a-year average at Thurles today as the Jessica Harrington trained gelding landed the BetVictor Hurdle under jockey Robbie Power.

The son of Flemensfirth began his career in 2017 and having won his maiden hurdle that year, followed up with chase wins in 2018 and '19 before today gaining a fourth career win, when beating Mary Frances by six lengths.

Afterwards jockey Power said “he was entitled to do that on his hurdles form and on some of his chase form as well.

“He seems to be getting his confidence back after a couple of runs over hurdles. He was quite keen today for the first mile or so but he saw out the trip really well.

“His jumping improved as the race went on but he's always that way, even over fences he's the same and the further the race goes the better he jumps.

“Those couple of runs over hurdles will have done his confidence good and hopefully we can get a chance to go back over fences.

“The good gallop suited me as I was keen enough. He's a horse with a very high cruising speed but he also stays well.”
