On an evening to savour for Jessica Harrington, teenager Dylan Kidd made his first ride a winning one when steering 20-1 shot Jungle Cove to a fairytale victory in the €100,000 Nasrullah (Premier) Handicap at Leopardstown.
The 16-year-old from Trim, County Meath, graduated from RACE last week and seized his first opportunity to collar last year’s winner Mosala inside the final furlong before beating joint top-weight Casanova by three-quarters of a length.
