Jazz Lady gets it done at Ballybrit again

Successful here last month Jazz Lady (10/1) went in at Ballybrit again today, scoring in the A Year To Remember At Galway Handicap.

Gearoid Brouder did the steering for Ian O’Connor and the Red Jazz filly was game in getting the better of the geldings, Cerberus and Prospectus by half a length and the same.

The front trio drew on by five and a half lengths from fourth home, Tidal Action

"She obviously likes the track having won here last month and did it nicely. I didn't get to see it all as I was at the start helping her but she jumped well," said O'Connor.

"She was in good form coming here. Maybe the drop back to seven furlongs didn't suit and she was slowly away at Limerick. She was a lot sharper today and when horses handle this unique track it is a big plus.

"I go to the start early with her and try to keep her as relaxed as I can and get her loaded last as she is a bit of a worrier. She will go out for a break now. 

"I'm on the lookout for some more horses and maybe this might get me more. It would be nice to have a few for Dundalk for the winter even though it is a bit far away."
