Jockey Andrew McNamara partnered his first winner since returning from an injury sustained at Navan on May 18 when partnering Marseillais to win the featured Coffey Construction Handicap Chase at a wet Limerick this afternoon.
McNamara received severe concussion from a fall from Fen Game at Navan and returned to action at Perth last Wednesday.
McNamara, 25, partnered Marseillais to win for his retained trainer, Edward O´Grady, and the Limerick rider´s front running ride on the somewhat enigmatic gelding was flawless.
´He is obviously a funny horse and takes a bit of understanding. Andrew gets on with him well and its a case of horses for courses as he has won here before,´ said O?Grady.
