Browne McMonagle lands the feature & completes treble It was a good Monday afternoon's work for rising star of the weighroom Dylan Browne McMonagle as he completed a treble when landing the featured Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Red God' Handicap on Golden Twilight (15/2). The Letterkenny rider, earlier victorious on short-priced favourites Royal Scholar and Karaoke, tracked the leaders on the five-year-old and made his move entering the straight. In front two furlongs out, Golden Twilight was soon ridden clear and, despite drifting towards the stand's side rail, kept on well to beat last year's winner Ides Of August and Eighty Eight by two and three quarter lengths and the same. It was a third win on the polytrack for the five-year-old who landed a first prize of 30,000 Euros. Winning trainer Mick Halford said: "He had won here and showed his liking for it before. He's obviously just a better horse here on that surface. "He got lost around Galway with all the rain and everything. "That was great and I'm delighted for his owner Frank Lynch who has been a great supporter of ours over the years. That's the Louth colours and he has an All-Ireland medal for Louth himself. "He's a gorgeous horse and he's only getting stronger now. He's a horse you had to be very patient with." Quotes from Michael Graham
