- Race Conditions
The Stewards enquired into the fall on the flat of Much Wants More, ridden by R.A. Doyle as they turned into the straight. S. A. Shortall reported that from his position it appeared that Much Wants More switched to the outer and caught a heel from a horse in front of him. The Stewards confirmed this on the video evidence. R.A. Doyle was unavailable due to injury. Having considered the report and viewed a recording of the race the Stewards took no further action. The Stewards requested a report from Desmond McDonogh, trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of Star Power, placed first, as compared with its recent form. The trainer reported that he left the hood off this horse today as he had been getting too relaxed in his races recently, he also felt that today's good going was ideal and that the horse got a nice run up the inner. Having considered the evidence the Stewards noted the explanation offered.
