It was her day in the sun today, everything was right, and she really came on from the last day. She got no run in France at all, she got knocked over a furlong down. We trained her for this day and we rode her the same way as we did in the Guineas, up at the sharp end. She's probably got a little bit stronger. She likes a bit of nice ground. We've no idea where we're going now, this was the plan and we'll enjoy the day.
Mrs John Harrington, trainer
The Stewards enquired into possible interference inside the final furlong involving Champers Elysees, ridden by S.B. Kelly, placed sixth, Flirting Bridge, ridden by C.D. Hayes, unplaced, Mother Earth, ridden by R.L. Moore, placed third, No Speak Alexander, ridden by S. Foley, placed first and Shale, ridden by G.M. Ryan, unplaced, where it appeared interference may have occurred. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. S.B. Kelly stated that he had to sit for a stride but it made no difference to his finishing position. C.D. Hayes stated that his horses run was finished when he had to check. R.L. Moore stated that he received strong pressure from his outside
S. Foley stated that his mount leaned left when he used his whip but he corrected her as soon as he was able. G.M
Ryan stated that the horses on his outside interfered with his run and he had to check. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards made no alteration to the judges placings. However, they did find S. Foley in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly and considering his record they suspended him for 5 racedays
S.B. Kelly, rider of Champers Elysees trained by J.P. Murtagh, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount got no run
S. Foley, rider of No Speak Alexander trained by Mrs John Harrington, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount leaned left under pressure
G.M. Ryan, rider of Shale trained by Donnacha Aidan O'Brien, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount got badly hampered
Ms. Sheila Lavery, trainer of Belle Image, reported to the Clerk of Scales that she found her charge had pulled a front shoe post race.
