As of tonight’s meeting in Melton, Im Ready Jet has left no doubt she is back to her peak.

As for her next target, Im Ready Jet is heading towards the Vicbred Super Series.

Pink Galahs and Im Ready Jet have met three times with a two-to-one tally favouring the former.

“It is great to see her right back at her best,” Golino said. “We’ve had a few issues with her tying up this time in but she has come good at the right time.

“That was a terrific run tonight and puts her in good stead for the Vicbred in a few weeks.”
