The Stewards informed Michael G. Cleary, trainer that Heidi's Kode, would have to be recertified before being declared to run from stalls again.

R. Aguiar, rider of Doux Douce, trained by James Leavy, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount which previously ran in April 2013 changed legs and tired in the closing stages.

The Turf Club Veterinary Officer examined Doux Douce, trained by James Leavy, at the request of the Stewards and reported the animal to be clinically normal post race.

The Stewards enquired into the behaviour of She's Not Simple trained by J.J. Lambe and ridden by S. Corby which delayed the start of this race having dislodged her rider and was subsequently led to the start. M. Halford, Master of Apprentice Jockey S. Corby, stated that his rider was familiar with this filly having ridden her work at this track previously and therefore had no reservations about him taking the ride in this race. J.J. Lambe, trainer of She's Not Simple, stated that his charge can be fractious in the preliminaries and can be temperamental but he was satisfied that S. Corby would be well able to manage her. He added that he had requested permission to load the filly first into the stalls as she had previously showed reluctance to do so. S. Corby, Apprentice Jockey, stated that the filly fired her head back into his face on entering the track and dislodged him. After an unsuccessful attempt to remount her she was led to the start. Having considered all the evidence, the Stewards noted the explanation offered but reminded J.J. Lambe that a recurrence of this behaviour could render his charge liable to suspension.

Sabrina J. Harty, trainer of Dalasiri, reported to the Clerk of Scales that her charge scoped wrong post race.

The Stewards enquired into an incident about one and a half furlongs from the finish involving Cool Athlete, ridden by C.R. King, unplaced, Zeftan, ridden by T.P. Madden, placed second and Relay (GB), ridden by Gearoid Patrick Brouder, unplaced, where it appeared Cool Athlete ran short of room and checked. Evidence was heard from riders C.R. King in the presence of David Marnane, trainer, for whom he rode, Gearoid Patrick Brouder in the presence of J.T. Gorman, trainer, for whom he rode and T.P. Madden in the presence of Adrian Keatley, Authorised representative of Peter McCreery, trainer, for whom he rode. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were of the opinion that T.P. Madden had caused the incident by riding carelessly and consequently severely cautioned him having taken his clean previous record into consideration. Mr N.B. Wachman Chairman of the Acting Stewards absented himself from this enquiry and Mr S. Collins acted as Chairman.

D.J. Bunyan, trainer of Imrite, reported to the Office of the Governing Bodies on Monday 7th April that his charge has had a wind operation since his last run.
