The Stewards received a report from the Clerk of the Scales, Mr D. Maher, that Jamie Hayes, rider of Glanaree (FR), had presented himself at scales to weigh out at 2 lbs overweight. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned who stated that he was returning from injury and was satisfied when he checked his weight at home but the racecourse scales showed a difference of 2 lbs.
