IN a style seldom seen in premier handicaps at the Galway Festival, Laughifuwant dominated the €120,000 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Ahonoora Handicap to give Gerry Keane the biggest success of his training career.

The four-year-old won a maiden over this course and distance in the final week of last season but took his form to a new level as he turned what looked a competitive renewal of this seven-furlong contest into an utterly one-sided affair. In his relatively brief career to date, Laughifuwant had shown a preference for slower ground and an easing in the going over the course of the day aided his task.
