Lots to like about Lucan

Airtech Lucan looks a greyhound to follow after recording a gutsy success in the A6 contest on Romford's Thursday BAGS card.

Nicely into his stride from trap six in the 400m event, Paul Young's well-backed son of Droopys Vieri was vying for supremacy throughout, before wearing down the unfancied Mystic Blue (T1) off the final corner.

Asserting his authority in the closing stages, the progressive youngster displayed plenty of resolution to repel Maxine Locke's more experienced bitch by the narrowest of margins in 25:29sec.

Lucan's battling effort was made to look even more meritorious, considering that the track was running 30 slow as a result of a heavy downpour earlier in the day that forced the meeting to be postponed for more than half an hour.

The likeable Airtech Lucan has won three races from eight career outings to date, and it would come as no surprise to see the July 2005 pup competing in an appreciably higher grade in the coming months.

Backers have taken a liking to the promising individual, having seen him go off as favourite in all of his last seven starts, and they will probably be scanning the advance race cards in anticipation of his next engagement.
