Yes Sir Jack would have gone in many notebooks after he produced an eye-catching debut performance at Curraghmore. Sent off at the top of the market for his initial outing, his rider set out his intentions from the drop of the flag, immediately sending the Jack Hobbs gelding to the lead and from there he cut a fine picture, jumping and travelling strongly throughout. In fact, his efforts from the front had most of his rivals under pressure exiting out of the back straight. He travelled ominously strongly into the straight, and had just been headed coming to the last where he came down. This strong-travelling individual would certainly be seen to better effect over shorter trips where he should develop into an exciting performer, as a half-brother of the 140 top-rated hurdler I K Brunel.
