Jm Jungle Wins King George Stakes at Goodwood

Jm Jungle, a five-year-old sprinter trained by John and Sean Quinn, caused a minor upset by winning the Group Two King George Qatar Stakes at Goodwood, marking his first appearance at Group-race level. Ridden by Jason Hart, Jm Jungle took an early lead on the far side of the track and held off late challengers, including She's Quality and Commonwealth Cup winner Time For Sandals, to win by a neck. The victory adds to the Quinn stable's recent success at Goodwood, following Highfield Princess's win in the same race two years earlier. The horse is noted for his strong performance on downhill tracks like Epsom and Goodwood, and connections have confirmed plans to target the Group One Nunthorpe Stakes at York's Ebor meeting later in August. Sean Quinn highlighted Jm Jungle's versatility and improved strength this season, emphasizing the horse's suitability for fast ground and high-speed races. This win underscores the Quinns' reputation for producing top sprinters capable of competing at the highest levels.
