Outstanding mare completes historic victory

OUTSTANDING trotter Im Ready Jet has recorded a slice of history.

By capturing the Breeders’ Crown Championship for trainer Anton Golino, Im Ready Jet became the first to complete a clean sweep of the three Finals – pacers included!

The daughter of Quaker Jet was triumphant in her Breeders’ Crown heat and Final as a two-year-old before successfully defending her title the following season.

Im Ready Jet rounded out the hat-trick at Tabcorp Park Melton just moments ago.

“I couldn’t be prouder of her,” Golino said. “She has done a terrific job all along and isn’t done yet.

“She’s won three Group Ones, a pair of Group Threes and now a Group Two, so her record speaks for itself.”

Leading throughout from barrier three, Im Ready Jet cruised to an emphatic 23-and-a-half metre win from Queen Of Crime.

Illawong Stardust was a metre-and-a-half away third.

Rating 1:57.5 over 2240 metres, the squaregaiter took her record to 13 wins and six placings from 29 starts for earnings of $234,500.

To be given an easy week, Im Ready Jet will then be primed for next month’s Vicbred Super Series.

“The Vicbred is next for her,” Golino said. “I’ll give her a few light days before we get set for that.”
