Jet comes good for Donohoe Ballinaboola Jet came with a well timed challenge under Richie Deegan to land the second division of the William Hill Challenge Series Handicap Hurdle at Clonmel. The Dick Donohoe-trained was produced to challenge two from home and led over the last in the two-mile-three contest. He led over the last and kept on well to record a three-and-a-quarter length win over Spanish John. The 8/1 winner was recording his first career victory on his 11th outing. "I'm delighted to get that as he had been knocking around a while and Richie gave him a super ride,” said Donohoe. "He had run well in Wexford in October but he raced prominently and with the choke out the last day in Punchestown. He didn't finish his race as a result but we learned from that, dropped him in today and arrived late. Richie gave him a super ride. "He jumps well and off his hocks, so we might go for a chase next.  "I'm delighted for Seamus (Tobin, owner/breeder), who is a man I've known all my life and this is the first winner I've had for him."
