Punters Keane on title contender's mounts at Leopardstown

Colin Keane, still striving for every winner in his tussle with Donnacha O’Brien to be Champion Jockey, has a good book of rides at Leopardstown and several of his mounts have attracted market support.

Ger Lyons’ Ebony Maw fourth on debut at Gowran Park earlier this month, is 7/1 from 14/1 in the 2-y-o colts and geldings maiden at 1.55.

Stable companion Inscribe is into 11/2 from 10s for the Tote October Handicap at 4.50.

Keane also rides a couple with chances for his father Gerry, with confirmed mudlark Laughifuwant 2/1 from 3s for the Listed Knockaire Stakes at 3.05, and first-time tongue-tied Mean Fomhair into 5/2 from 4/1 for the 7f handicap at 3.40.

Elsewhere on the card, Dermot Weld’s handicap debutant Azila is the one for money in the nursery at 2.30 having shortened from 5/2 into 6/4.

Navan maiden winner Degraves (11/2 into 3/1 with PaddyPower) is popular for Joseph O’Brien in the featured Bet With The Tote Eyrefield Stakes (Group 3) at 4.15.
