Wee Willie Nail (9/4), Kings Keeper (9/4), Wild Shot (11/4), So Scottish (9/2), Glan Gap (9/1), Celine Man (25/1), Percy Pi (33/1), Midnight Fortune (33/1), Lillys Girl (33/1), Hollington (40/1), St Denis's Well (50/1), Moving Water (66/1), Aghinagh (100/1), Closest To Heaven (125/1), Dromolought Lad (200/1)

18:20 Downpatrick - 6 May 2022 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

One final chance is given to KINGS KEEPER as he leaves the impression this longer trip could play to his strengths. Wee Willie Nail and So Scottish have the potential for improvement and can give Henry De Bromhead's charge most to think about.
