Settle For Red claims a third win

Apprentice jockey Tom Madden continues to impress and partnered his sixth winner of the season and his second in two days on Settle For Red winner of the Crilly Byrne & Fay Ltd Supporting Naas Hurling Apprentice Handicap at Naas today.

The son of Redback battled well in the closing stages for a head win over House Limit and afterwards winning trainer David Marnane stated "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."

Settle For Red was recording a third career win and a second since joining Marnane earlier this year.
