See also » First-win-in-Ireland-for-Never-Back-Down His work had improved in the last couple of weeks and maybe the step up to a mile helped. He likes it here in Dundalk as well. He had good form here previously and we were hopeful of a good run more than confident.
Joseph Anthony Murray, trainer
The Stewards requested a report from Joseph Anthony Murray, trainer, as to the apparent improvement in form of Never Back Down, placed first, as compared with its recent form. Joseph Anthony Murray stated that a step up in trip coupled with a return to a track where he has previously run well had helped to bring about the apparent improvement in form.
