Keane and Lyons on track in Railway!

Trim jockey Colin Keane and Kiltale trainer Ger Lyons were on track at the Curragh yesterday when they combined for their biggest success of the season when winning the Group 2 Railway Stakes with Medicine Jack to add to the winner at the Kildare venue on Friday night.

Third on a Leopardstown debut in May and a winner at Navan last month also, the two-year-old was out of the frame at Newbury in between those two runs.

Showing no ill-effects from his earlier fall, Keane bided his time before challenging from over a furlong out to beat the Aidan O'Brien-trained 7/4 favourite Peace Envoy and claim the €67,000 first prize.

Lyons also took fourth with King Electric for the same owner, Sean Jones.

'Colin got a terrible fall earlier in the day and it just goes to show you that it can go one way or the other so quickly in racing. I'm delighted both horses and jockeys were alright,” commented the trainer in a post-race interview with irishracing.com
