Jezki bursts Champagne bubble.

Quote:
Jessica Harrington's star Jezki got back on the winning trail with a scintillating display in the Herald Champion Novice Hurdle at Punchestown.

Unbeaten in his first four starts over timber, the five-year-old (2-1) beat the Willie Mullins-trained Champagne Fever earlier in the season but was only third behind the same opponent in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham last month.

With the scores even, the pair renewed rivalry in this Grade One event and even-money favourite Champagne Fever was once again sent straight to the lead, but while he shook off his opponents at Prestbury Park, Jezki travelled noticeably best rounding the home turn this time and soon asserted under Barry Geraghty.
