Everything Okee-dokey with King in Coffey final

KING OKEE ran out a very comfortable winner of the Diarmuid Coffey Bookmaker Backgraders Stake at Curraheen Park on Saturday night.

The 5/2 favourite in an open betting heat, the winner was led in the early stages by Springwater Boy but, having edged ahead passing the winning line for the first time, he led Striking Dream into the bend.

The pair had already opened up a gap over the other four by the second bend at which point Striking Dream moved upsides the favourite.
