Curragh Race 2 - Tote Never Beaten By Sp Handicap

KEKE (5) ended last year with a 3.8L victory over course and distance in September. Taken to resume with a win for a stable who do well with their sprinters. Winner of two of his last three starts SPORTING HERO (9) arrives here in great form following a 0.5L second attempting a 1000m handicap at Dundalk eight days ago. Expected to go well from the front revisiting turf. TWO STARS (8) rates highly on his first start since finishing a nose second contesting a 1200m handicap at Doncaster in November. HEAVENLY POWER (3) enters calculations on his first run since a 1.8L success tackling 1200m at Naas in October.
