Ballyward (IRE) wore earplugs.

Permission was given for Mulcahys Hill (IRE) to be mounted in the chute.

It was noted that Clondaw Cian (IRE), placed fourth, lost a cheekpiece on the first circuit.

Mr Robert James, the rider of Just Your Type (IRE), which fell, was suspended for 7 days for using his whip when his horse was showing no response from approaching the home bend.

An enquiry was held to consider whether Mr N McParlan, the rider of Mulcahys Hill (IRE), which fell at the second last fence, had continued in the race when it appeared to be contrary to the horse’s welfare.

The rider and the Veterinary Officer were interviewed and recordings of the incident were viewed.

The Veterinary Officer stated that a post-race examination of the gelding failed to reveal any abnormalities.

McParlan was suspended for 8 days.

The Stewards wished to hold an enquiry into whether Mr Damien Skehan, the rider of Clondaw Cian (IRE), which finished fourth, beaten 48½ lengths, had continued in the race when it appeared contrary to his horse’s welfare, but were unable to do so as Skehan had left the course.

They adjourned their enquiry to 14 March.
