14th time lucky for 20/1 shot Georginas Jet Georginas Jet caused a 20/1 surprise when opening her account at the 14th attempt in the Cab Plant Handicap Hurdle at Downpatrick. The Jet Away mare raced keenly under Gavin Brouder and was seven lengths clear at halfway. That advantage was greatly reduced by three out, but she asserted again on the run-in and galloped on strongly to score by ten lengths. Bryson took the runner-up spot with Victoria Kesia a further half a length back in third. Winning trainer Paul Gilligan said, “It wasn't really the plan, we were to sit in behind the leaders, but she got hold of the bit and she was running keen on him, so he said he'd let her slide on. "She was gassy everywhere and Gavin gave her a grand ride. Jack (Gilligan) was to ride her, but claiming off 10-8 would be a struggle for him. "Her half-brother (Jerry From Kerry) bolted in there last Sunday in Punchestown. "She has always been a filly that would win. The ground the last day in Limerick was atrocious. She had kind of course form (placed) here on the better ground. "The only concern I had was the drop back in trip. "It is nice for the syndicate that own her. Unfortunately, none of them are here today, but she is a winner now. "She's a lovely filly; she is all heart and guts. She's grand, we won't get too carried away." Quotes by Michael Graham
