Triona (Burbage,owner) led the horse up herself. She comes into the yard every day and does everything with him. He’s promised so much on the gallops at home but never delivered. We always knew there was a race in him if we could get his head right. He ran ok in Dundalk and we gave him a break. He’s come back great and his attitude has been different. Finally we have got a tune out of him. He got cut out of it before the straight and dropped back. I thought that was the end of that. Rory found a few gaps, got him wide and he flew home.

The Stewards enquired into an incident about one furlong from the finish involving Dr Patrick, ridden by C.D

Hayes, Dazzling Spirit, ridden by D. McMonagle and Heer At Dawn (GB), ridden by G.F. Carroll, where it appeared that Dr Patrick received interference and checked. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. In his evidence, C.D. Hayes stated that his mount was staying on one paced when receiving pressure from his outside which left him very short of room requiring evasive action. D. McMonagle stated that Heer At Dawn (GB) edged slightly left and his own mount reacted by diving left but he did not realise that Dr Patrick had not dropped back sufficiently enough at that time. G.F. Carroll stated that his own mount had being hanging left but he straightened him to run straight to the line.
