Review navan 11th Jun
King Electric is ridden out by Colin Keane to beat Lyin Eyes (navy) and Youarewonder

< King Electric stamped his authority on the Lynn Lodge Stud EBF Median Auction Race at Navan.
Conqueror of subsequent Listed winner and Royal Ascot contender Peace Envoy at the Curragh, Ger Lyons' youngster was sent off the 1-3 favourite to see off four supposedly inferior rivals.
Having travelled in second in the early stages, Colin Keane sent him to the front at halfway and although he didn't stroll clear, he never looked in any danger and passed the post four and a half lengths ahead of Lyin Eyes
The money came for Lyons' Tony The Gent prior to the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race and although he battled, he had no answer when the Aidan O'Brien-trained General Macarthur (11-4) swept by in the closing stages for a three-quarter-length success.< In Salutem registered his third Navan success in the Country And Western Evening Friday 8th July Handicap.
The well-supported 100-30 favourite was allowed to stay on the mark off which he finished third at the Curragh's Guineas meeting and took advantage in this slightly less competitive affair to beat Russian Soul by a couple of lengths.
His trainer Ken Condon followed up when Shanghai Beauty (7-1) hung on in the Newgrange And Ardboyne Hotels Apprentice Handicap to give jockey Andrew Breslin his first winner.
Seven days on from Harzand's Epsom Derby triumph, the Aga Khan, Dermot Weld and Pat Smullen teamed up successfully again with Karalara in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.
Smullen was content to look on from the rear until bringing the 9-4 chance with her run down the outside and she picked up the leaders before scoring by three lengths from Gabardine < Ceol Na Nog (7-4 favourite) broke through at this track a fortnight ago and added the Summer Ladies Day Handicap to her gains, while 6-1 joint-favourite Zebgrey denied Drillmaster his four-timer in the Navan Members Handicap.
