Mr Lupton lands Curragh gamble in Bold Lad Handicap


Colin Keane guided the Richard Fahey-trained Mr Lupton to a popular victory in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF "Bold Lad" Sprint Handicap at the Curragh. 

The well-handicapped seven-year-old - a Group Two winner over the same course and distance last season - was well-backed throughout the day ahead of the opening race on Irish Champions Weekend Sunday, and ultimately got the job done as the 11/2 favourite with a bit to spare.

Never far off the pace in the smaller group of runners towards far side of the track, Mr Lupton really started to lay down his challenge with a couple of furlongs to travel and he responded well to the urgings of an in-form Keane, going on to score from Balirmayne (25/1), Lil Grey (50/1) and Laugh A Minute at 25/1.

Keane and Fahey also team up later on the card courtesy of Shark Two One in the big sales race at 5.15.

Keane said: "You can't ask for any more, it's been a brilliant weekend.

"On his last run he looked like a horse that was coming back to form, I spoke to Richard this morning and he said to keep it simple. It couldn't hard worked out better as we got a lead and he really quickened between the two and the one. ราคาบอลไหล

"He was possibly getting lonely towards the line but he's done it well."

Alex Levack: "Of course [he was disappointed]. He enjoyed his time at Leeds incredibly. They looked after him so well, the fans were fantastic to him. But when a football club don't want to sell it's very difficult" Ben White was "disappointed" his summer move to Leeds collapsed but is fully committed to Brighton after signing a new deal, says his agent Alex Levack. The 22-year-old spent last season on loan at Elland Road, with Marcelo Bielsa's side unsuccessful with an initial £18.5m offer for the centre-back, before having two further bids of £22m and £25m turned down by Brighton. White, who had two seasons plus the option of a third remaining on his previous contract, had rejected three offers of a new deal from the club but will be part of Graham Potter's squad for 2020/21 after agreeing terms until June 2024. When asked on The Transfer Show whether White was disappointed a move to Leeds fell through, Levack said: "Of course. He enjoyed his
