That was just brilliant by Ronan. I said to him ‘just keep it simple, you know the horse now’ and he had no trouble in running — everything went smoothly. It’s particularly poignant as Pat was a great friend to all of us.

The Stewards reviewed an incident a furlong down involving Urban Beat, ridden by B.M. Coen, unplaced, Dandalla, ridden by G.M. Ryan, placed fifth and Stormy Girl, ridden by W.J. Lee, unplaced, where it appeared that Stormy Girl ran short of room between horses. Having viewed the recording of the incident and considered the matter, the Stewards were satisfied that no further action was warranted.
