Davy said he was just professional and was asleep the whole way. He gave him one dig and he did what he had to do,. A bit of softer ground would suit him better but it was a nice performance and he did it well. Lunar Power brought him a little left so he needed the good jump at the last. We will look at Leopardstown over Christmas but ground will be a thing so we will put him in Chepstow as well. Gordon Elliott, trainer

The Stewards enquired into the running and riding of Sevenal (GB), ridden by D.G. Hogan, and trained by Denis Gerard Hogan. Evidence was heard from D.G. Hogan who stated that his intentions were to jump off at the back and get his mount to settle as he can be very keen. He added he was happy with the way the race went altough his mount did run quiet keen in snatches. Despite this he felt he still had a chance of better prize money turning in but was a little disappointed Sevenal (GB) didn't pick up better in the straight. He felt he had finished in his best possible place despite losing his whip after the last. The Stewards also received a report from the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer who stated that Sevenal (GB) was lame behind post race. Samples were taken for further analysis. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards noted the explanations offered.
