Kennedy, rider of Withallduerespect, anticipated the starting procedure leading to a false start. Evidence was heard from the starter. In his evidence Mr. J.R.

Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. In giving their evidence, all Riders were of the opinion that the race could have started in the first instance and they were not in breach of the Rule in relation to the Start.

Noonan were in breach of Rule 208. Having considered their records in this regard, the Raceday Stewards suspended J.S. McGarvey, S.W. Flanagan, C.P. McNamara, K.M. Donoghue and P.J.
