Adam Jones on Koka Fast was a length ahead at the line

Koka Fast won the Cenkos Channel Islands Handicap by finishing a length ahead of Snow Lark at the L'Ancresse Race Day on Monday.

Five horses rode over the two miles and a furlong flat course for the Channel Island's biggest ever prize fund.

The 2007 Channel Island Champion was trained by Alison Malzard and is owned by Joan Lowry and ridden by Adam Jones.

"He's an absolutely wonderful horse, so good natured, he never fails to please," said Lowry.
