What a Super win by Jenkins today!

Jenkins showcased sheer brilliance today at Morphettville, delivering a performance that undoubtedly marks a pinnacle in his career.

Facing a formidable field, including the likes of Alpine Flyer returning from Listed Company, the highly touted Worsfold making waves in Melbourne (a horse that have beaten Netanyahu), and Texan Windstorm boasting a string of Wins and 2nds this campaign with top SA hoop onboard, the odds were stacked against Jenkins.

Moreover, the track conditions heavily favoured front runners, a stark contrast to Jenkins’ usual racing style, which sees him settling at the rear of the pack.

Yet, guided once again by the skillful Caitlin Jones, their partnership proved unyielding.

Caitlin’s diligent trackwork with Jenkins at home has consistently yielded impressive results, a testament to their synergy on the track.

Dropping back to his customary trailing position, Jenkins found his stride amidst an even tempo upfront.

As they approached the turn, Jenkins surged forward effortlessly, Caitlin Jones strategically shadowing the favourite Alpine Flyer throughout.

In a daring display of finesse, Caitlin maneuvered Jenkins through a slender gap, threading the needle between Test the Law and Alpine Flyer.

With breathtaking finesse and precision, they surged past the favourite and the rest of the field, ultimately crossing the finish line with a commanding 1.5-length lead.

It was a victory that reverberated with excellence, a testament to Jenkins’ prowess and the unwavering partnership between horse and jockey.
