Sheehy said, .My agent Kevin O'Ryan rang me last night when I was just getting into bed and he . I broke well from a wide draw. There was a lot of pace on so I was keen to get slotted in and just get him to relax. He did everything lovely for me. Coming down into the dip I got every run I wanted and I picked up well coming out of the dip. I galloped right to the line. Adrian McGuinness, trainer

R.P. Cleary, rider of Quizical trained by Ms. Sheila Lavery, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount lugged right up the straight

The Stewards reviewed an incident in the home straight involving Quizical, ridden by R.P. Cleary, placed second and Mosala, ridden by C.D. Hayes, placed third, where it appeared both horses got close. Having viewed the recording of that part of the race and considered the matter, the Stewards took no further action

The Stewards enquired into the running and riding of Spanish Tenor, ridden by L.F. Roche, and trained by Adrian McGuinness. Evidence was heard from the trainer and rider concerned. Adrian McGuinness, stated that he acquired this animal after it won at Tipperary on the 1st June and since then it had only run once under his care

Having reviewed it's previous form, he instructed L.F. Roche to go a good hard pace as the animal had previously won when setting a strong pace. He added that he was disappointed that his charge had not raced up the hill. He advised the Stewards that his charge can be very free at home and was fitted with a cross noseband today. In his opinion restraint would be required in future runs. He confirmed that in the short time that he had care of this horse, no abnormalities had been found. L.F. Roche, confirmed the instructions and added that he had attempted to make the running from a wide draw but his mount had set alight in so doing. He added that his mount had free wheeled into the dip but had tired when squeezed for an effort on the start of the uphill run. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards noted the explanations of both the rider and the trainer.
