Another Big Sprint For The Quinns As Slalom Lover Jm Jungle Takes The King George, Nunthorpe Next

[Wandering Eyes]

John Quinn seems perennially capable of producing a sprinter to make a mark in Pattern company and in partnership with son Sean he pulled off the feat again on Friday with Jm Jungle (Bungle Inthejungle) in Goodwood's feature G2 King George Qatar Stakes. A proven lover of downhill tracks, Epsom's Dash Handicap winner was in his element far side under Jason Hart and asserted from the furlong pole to hold the fillies She's Quality (Acclamation) and Time For Sandals (Sands Of Mali) by a neck and half a length respectively.

“He's probably not so good going uphill, but we don't have to worry about that so much,” Sean said of the 14-1 shot, who adds to the yard's tally here having supplied Liberty Beach to win the 2019 Molecomb and Highfield Princess to capture this two years ago. “He's just a good horse and he had form with American Affair earlier in the year. Jason said after York last time that he'd love to ride him in the Nunthorpe, where they go lickety-split and we won't have far to go to run there.”

The sprint kings strike again
