Colin Keane’s record-breaking achievements overshadowed the rest of the card at the Curragh, including the Paddy Power Irish Cesarewitch and the impressive performance of Paddy Twomey’s Limiti Di Greccio in the listed Staffordstown Stud 2-Y-0 Fillies Stakes.

The Shane Foley-ridden Line Out, a versatile nine-year-old, trained for the Lillingston family by John Kiely, took the Cesarewitch on only his fourth start on the Flat, sweetened by first-time cheekpieces and coming through strongly to record a resounding length and a half win over Turnpike Trip.
