Lyons and Keane in double form at Naas

The combination of Ger Lyons and Colin Keane was in double form at Naas today to maintain the champion jockey''s consistent run after a couple of placed efforts at Navan yesterday.

Coill Avon returned to action for the first time since finishing fifth in the Group 3 Round Tower Stakes at the Curragh last August and duly obliged.

Coill Avon challenged for the lead two furlongs out and forged clear to win from Shabaaby by over two lengths.

The double was completed when newcomer Party House landed a fillies' maiden.
