Tramore 15th August 2026

The Stewards authorised the following substitutions of riders at this meeting:

S.T. McCullagh, rider of Express Choise, trained by K.J. Condon, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount ran off the top bend and ran green down the straight.

R.C. Colgan, rider of Sea Of The Celts, trained by P. Twomey, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount ran very green and didn't handle the track.

S. Coen, rider of Glittering Gem, trained by D. K. Weld, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount didn't handle the track.

The Raceday Stewards received an objection from the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Clerk of the Scales, regarding the fact that Jessica O'Gorman, rider of Shirzan, placed first, weighed in at 130.8lbs having weighed out at 132.1lbs, meaning she was more than 1lb light on weighing in. Evidence was heard from the IHRB Clerk of the Scales and both the rider and trainer concerned. Jessica O'Gorman stated that she used the bathroom after weighing out and could not account for any other weight loss. Trainer, Mr. P.G. Fahey stated that he could not account for the discrepancies in the weight. Having considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards disqualified Shirzan in accordance with the provisions of Rule 231(i)(If a Rider cannot draw the weight at which they weighed out the Clerk of the Scales shall allow the Rider 1lb. If the Rider cannot then draw the weight, the Horse will be disqualified, the placings amended, and the stake forfeited) and amended result is as follows:

1st: Davy Crockett
2nd: Solness
3rd: Kaleo Ametsa
4th: Glittering Gem
5th: Aiteall


Furthermore the Raceday Stewards ordered that Jessica O'Gorman forfeit her riding fee.
