Jockey Bill Lee completed a double at Dundalk tonight, achieving the feat on the Ken Condon trained Keep It Cool in the concluding race of Dundalk's winter series, the Irish News Hitting The Target Handicap.

Lee made all on the 14/1 winner who battled well to hold the challenge of Discovery Bay inside the final furlong.

Afterwards Condon reported “Keep It Cool (who was having his first run for Condon) came to us in December, has a bit of age and doesn't kill himself in the morning!

"I thought he might need the run but he runs well fresh and he'll mix it over hurdles now and might go for a chase too. He should be a fun horse for the summer."
