He was quite keen early on and for the first four furlongs I had no cover and had no horses in front of me, . Once I got him behind horses he switched off a bit and quickened away lovely. He had two good runs from a very good four year old crop from last year before he got injured. I think it looks like he has a nice mark on the flat and could be one for those staying flat handicaps. We think he is still well handicapped over hurdles and there might be a strongly run two mile hurdle in him; he was just behind (subsequent Galway Hurdle winner) Tudor City in one at Fairyhouse one day so we might look at that.

The Stewards enquired into an incident rounding the home turn involving Newcross, ridden by Mr B.W. Harvey and Saglawy (FR), ridden by Mr P.W. Mullins, where it appeared that interference may have occurred. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards took no further action

The Stewards received an objection from the Clerk of the Scales, Ms. A. O'Keeffe, regarding the weighing in procedure following this race, as Mr R. Sugrue, rider of Coolmill, placed fifth, failed to weigh in. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned who stated that this was as an oversight and genuine error on his behalf. Having considered the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that Mr. R. Sugrue was in breach of Rule 227 in that he had failed to present himself to weigh in, and having considered his record in this regard, suspended him for 2 racedays. Furthermore, under Rule 230 the Stewards disqualified Coolmill from fifth place. The Result now reads; First Saglawy, Second Newcross, Third The Ballyboys, Fourth Play The Game, Fifth Tomahawk Kid, Sixth Balaclava.
