The SZR team roared him another winner on Saturday afternoon at Geelong where stable favourite stormed home to take out the feature race on the card, the St Patrick’s Cup.
Despite a couple of really promising jumpouts at Flemington, and showing plenty in his trackwork, Jack was sent out a despised outsider by bookmakers in what was a very strong benchmark 70 field.
Ridden by Liam Riordan, who has a close association with the horse, Jack jumped out perfectly landing just behind the more fancied leading pair of Sonaree and Jungle Jim. The leaders really skated along at a strong gallop, with Jack being pushed along from the 600m to keep up. Liam and Jack kept grinding away, and when the leaders started taking the short steps, Jack kicked into overdrive, storming past them to record his 4th career win.
As a 73 rater now, we’ll look to continue going through his grades and find another race where he’ll be competitive. Congratulations to all the owners who have had a lot of fun racing Jack and will continue to do so this campaign.
On a side note, congratulations to jockey Liam Riordan who rode a career best four winners on the day. Liam has been a regular fixture partnering up with SZR horses and we look forward to seeing him back in the winner’s circle soon.
With the stable in ominous form, there’s never been a better time to come on board as an owner and if you’ve been thinking about joining the team, get involved!
