Greenham Stakes Return An Option For Adrian Keatley’s Ballymount Boy

[Wandering Eyes]

Adrian Keatley is exploring the idea of stepping Ballymount Boy (Ire) (Camacho {GB}) out in trip this season.

A classy juvenile last year, Ballymount Boy was snapped up mid-season by Wathnan Racing after he finished second to unbeaten star Vandeek (GB) (Vandeek {GB}) in the G2 Richmond S. at Goodwood. 

The Greenham S. and the Craven S. have been put forward as possible targets by Keatley, who reported his charge to be raring to go for the new season. 

Keatley said, “James Doyle is going to come and sit on him next week and we will finalise plans closer to the time, but the Greenham is a possibility I think, or he could end up going to Newmarket in April.”

The trainer added, “He's a fine horse, he looks more like a seven-furlong horse or a miler this year. Last year he was built like a big, strong, sprinting two-year-old – I think he's leaner this time around and hopefully he can keep progressing from where he is now.

“We were happy to finish off the season how we did with him last year and we're hoping he can pick up where he left off.”
