After race at Dundalk Fri, 23rd Feb, 2018 (1st)

That's his trip. We tried him over a mile and a quarter the last day and while he did get it they just didn't go quick enough. He dictated it there today and Pat gave him a great ride,. In that grade he's grand. He's been a great horse for us, winning seven times, and has a great constitution.

David Marnane

After race at Dundalk Fri, 20th Nov, 2015 (1st)

He's a grand old horse and he likes those short-heads (won by a nose here on November 6th). He keeps his head down at the right time,. The handicapper can't do much with him there and he'll come up here again. He's had a long old year but he's as good as ever and looks great. He likes that quick surface. He might idle a bit in front. He's done us no harm since he came back from England.

David Marnane

After race at Dundalk Fri, 6th Nov, 2015 (1st)

He was very unlucky here two runs back and on that run was entitled to be there,.

David Marnane

After race at Naas Wed, 24th Jun, 2015 (1st)

he came from England last year in mid-season and won in Dundalk and then we gave him a break. He's done well but I thought he might need it. He didn't cost too much and is owned by Mossy Casey who is a businessman from Cahir. Hopefully he'll run at the likes of Killarney and Galway over the summer.

David Marnane

After race at Dundalk Fri, 3rd Jan, 2014 (1st)

Settle For Red is very genuine and tries hard.
