Keane doubles up for the day on Ela Colin Keane's dash up the M1 reaped rewards when Ela Katrina took the Crowne Plaza Hotel Handicap at Dundalk for his boss Ger Lyons. Having been on the mark at Leopardstown earlier the championship leader moved six clear of Shane Foley with his win in the mile-and-a-half handicap. Keane produced the 5/2 joint favourite to tackle front-runner Construct passing the two pole and she asserted passing the furlong marker. The daughter of Kendargent, a half-sister to Pallasator, went on to record a length-and-three-quarters success. “She's been a revelation. They didn't go mad and she showed that she has a turn of foot. She definitely doesn't show that at home as she's very laid back,” said Shane Lyons. “She seems to keep it for Dundalk and absolutely loves this place. As long as there are races for her here she'll run away. “Colin said she's a very simple ride so she'll be a good ride for the apprentices during the winter as well.”
