The Stewards interviewed Mr Ben Delmer, Authorised Representative for W.P. Mullins, Trainer, following a report from the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer, Dr. Lynn Hillyer, to the effect that Buildmeupbuttercup (GB) was found to have had an obvious mark of blood on the offside over the jugular during routine pre race inspection. Mr Delmar reported that his charge had a blood sample taken by a veterinary practitioner in the yard prior to travelling. Dr. Hillyer confirmed that, having spoken to the Veterinary practitioner, she was satisfied with this explanation. Having considered the evidence including photographic evidence in consultation with Dr. Hillyer, the Stewards allowed Buildmeupbuttercup to run on condition that written confirmation was provided by the trainer's Vet to the effect that the horse had been blood sampled privately and that the horse will be sampled post race. The Stewards advised Mr. Delmer that it was not acceptable to present a horse in such a manner and reminded him of the trainer's future responsibilities in this regard.
