GER Lyons further enhanced his fine record in the €50,000 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Red God Handicap as the steady improver Heliac made it three wins from four starts in 2019 to leave her connections contemplating a stakes race campaign in 2020.

The Khalid Abdullah-owned three-year-old, who was giving Lyons a third win in seven years in Dundalk’s richest handicap of the season, was partnered by Chris Hayes, with the trainer’s stable jockey Colin Keane serving a one-day suspension.
