Chesham on cards for Lockdown
Love Lockdown could line up in the Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot after a battling success at Naas today.
Keagan Latham got a good tune from his mount as he wore down Beethoven in the final furlong for a head success.
"They are obviously two good horses. Aidan thinks his is a Chesham type so I'll learn from the maestro and say mine is a Chesham horse," said Lyons.
"Since we gelded him after his first run he's been nothing but an out-and-out professional."
Lyons also had a word of praise for stable jockey Keagan Latham.
"Nobody's riding better than Keagan and he's a huge benefit to the yard."
The runner-up could also be set for Ascot with Aidan O'Brien saying: "He's still a bit of a baby and Johnny said he ran green again. He could be a possibility for the Coventry or Chesham."
