I gave up backing her. I don't know why she never raised a gallop in Tipperary. J Larkin, trainer

Gearoid Patrick Brouder, rider of Well Hello, trained by J.T.Gorman, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount suffered interference shortly after jumping from stalls and then lost her action on the bend before the turn into the straight. The Stewards requested a report from J.Larkin, trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of Ariahey (USA), winner, as compared with its most recent run at Tipperary on 26th June, where she finished last of 15 runners. The trainer reported that the filly had run well previous to Tipperary at Sligo on good ground, but at Tipperary the rain eased the ground to yielding, and he attributed any improvement in form to the better ground here today. Having considered the report, the Stewards noted the explanation offered. The Stewards interviewed E.J. McNamara, rider of Ginger Genie, placed second, concerning his use of the whip in the closing stages of this race. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned. Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were of the opinion E.J. McNamara was in breach of Regulation 10 3 (f) in that he had used his whip with excessive force and frequency, and having taken his record into account, they suspended him for 3 racedays. The Stewards interviewed K.P. Moriarty, rider of Byron Beauty, placed third, concerning his use of the whip in the closing stages of this race. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned and from Mr H. Rogers, trainer representing T. Stack, trainer and master of K.P. Moriarty. Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence the Stewards were of the opinion the rider was in breach of Regulation 10 3 (f) in that he had used his whip with excessive frequency, and having taken his record and his inexperience into account, they cautioned him accordingly.
