FormscanBy Gary Carson - The last race of the Flat season and it would be fitting if Colin Keane had the last say, on TEAM OF FIRSTS, in a record breaking year for the champion jockey. The Zoffany gelding won his maiden on similar ground at Navan back in March. He was beaten favourite on his return to the same track 11 days ago when keeping on one-paced in the closing stages. On this slower ground now, and having slipped a couple of pounds, he may be able to get a lot closer. Loingseoir is another who goes on the ground and look to have an obvious chance after running out a good winner at the Curragh last time. He should still be competitive despite a 6lb rise for that success. Mountain Fox bumped into one when second to easy winner Dutch Schultz at Gowran last time but it was a solid run and he could be place material here. %0A
