Owing to low-lying sun, the Stewards granted permission for fence #1 (last) to be omitted from this race.

The Stewards enquired into possible interference in the closing stages involving The Great White, ridden by C.D. Maxwell, placed first, Dontdooddson (FR), ridden by R. Deegan, placed fifth, and Krujers Girl, ridden by C.J. Orr, placed second, where it appeared that interference may have occurred. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. R. Deegan stated that he got interference from his outer and checked at the dolls where he got tight but he felt his horse had run its race. C.J. Orr stated that he was always half a length down and shouted looking for a bit of space at the dolls. C.D. Maxwell stated that he was half a length up and aimed for a direct line inside the fence, he felt headed and his horse battled back. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were of the opinion that The Great White had caused interference to Krujers Girl and as a result of this interference had improved its finishing position. As a consequence, the Stewards reversed the placings of the first two horses and amended the result to read as follows:

Amended Result:

First: Krujers Girl
Second: The Great White
Third: Duchess Ravenswaves (GB)
Fourth: Union Park (FR)
Fifth: Dondooddson
Sixth: Callthebarman

Furthermore, the Stewards were of the opinion that C.D. Maxwell was in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly, and having considered his record in this regard they suspended him for 1 race days.

The Stewards received a report from Mr. P.D. Deegan , Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Clerk of the Scales, regarding the fact that C.J. Orr , rider of Krujers Girl , weighed in at 1.1 lbs overweight. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned, who stated that he took a drink after weighing out. Having considered the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that C.J. Orr was in breach of Rule 231 and they therefore cautioned him on this occasion.
