Colin Keane completed a photo-finishes double, and narrowly missed with another, today, steering Everylittlestep (16/5f) to win Leopardstown's Mark McCabe Handicap for trainer Yvonne Latta and owner William Powell-Harris.

The 49-rated maiden comfortably had the measure of chasing Init Together inside the final furlong but idled and at the line held on to score by the narrowest of margins, adding to Keane's earlier short-head win with Chestnutter but 'nose' loss on Port Louis

Andrew Latta, representing his mother, said “she was long overdue a win, was good today and stuck her head down and battled. There had been questions on one or two days about her battling, but in fairness to her she had a little problem last year and we only found out after the season was over.

“Her first run back this season was very good and on her last two runs there were excuses afterwards but today she was bang on.

“Hopefully she'll get a bit of confidence from that, she's not ungenuine but just parks herself when she gets to the front and doesn't do a whole lot. She needs to come late, even later maybe.”
