SINCE her 5,000gns purchase in October 2017 Ejayteekay has proved quite a money spinner for her connections. She reached a new high for Gavin Cromwell when landing the €30,000 Monroe’s Live John Monroe Memorial Mares’ Handicap Hurdle at Ballinrobe on Monday evening.

Now a four-time winner and placed on nine occasions for Cromwell, the six-year-old has been in fine form lately and came here looking to build on a third to Star Maker in a Grade B handicap hurdle at Killarney. The Paul Townend-ridden and Brian Poots-owned Ejayteekay (9/2) produced a great jump at the last as a couple of rivals looked to close in and that set her up for a five-and-a-half-length triumph over Just Klass.
