First Win for Record Priced Rubick Colt

Tara Madgwick - Thursday August 13

As a half-brother to Group I winner and $5.8 million earner Pierata, there has always been a lot of interest in Rubick colt Jet Propulsion who opened his account at Newcastle on Thursday.

Prepared by Ciaron Maher and David Eustace, Jet Propulsion disappointed on debut last month when faced with a heavy 8 track at Canterbury, but was quick to show his true colours on former footing.

He led all the way at Newcastle on a good 4 surface to win the 1300m maiden by a length in a comfortable display.
