Westerner Mare Gains Maiden Win In Style

Ticket To LA (4m Westerner - In Bloom, by Montjeu) led home a 1-2 for Colin Bowe in the Four-Year-Old Mares’ Maiden at Ballingarry on Sunday.

JW Kenny rode the bay to lead and was joined after a mile by the favourite Jiggy With It. Regaining the advantage with six fences left to jump, she went clear from three out and stayed on well all the while to win by a comprehensive ten lengths.

Ticket To LA was bred by Eamonn Duggan and is the first foal out of In Bloom, a winner over hurdles and a half-sister to Group 3 winner Triumphant.
