Flanker Jet edged out odds-on stablemate Ipanema Queen in a driving finish to the six furlong conditions race at Dundalk this evening.

The 4/7 favourite bounced out in front but was joined on either side a furlong-and-a-half out by Flanker Jet and Midnight Dusk

Flanker Jet had a narrow lead inside the final furlong and the 15/2 shot just held the late rally of Ipanema Queen to record a nose victory, under Mikey Sheehy.

Trainer Robson De Aguiar said of the winner:- "He is probably fitter than the filly and six furlongs I think stretches the filly a little bit.

“She is free in front, so I think she needs to drop to five furlongs until she settles. She put her head down and came back, and I think she is going to improve a lot after that race.

"If they do go hard over six he comes home well."
