.He completely boiled over in Cork last time and he was in a lather of sweat in the ring. I don't know why,. Damian Joseph English, trainer

The Stewards requested a report from Damian Joseph English, trainer, as to the apparent improvement in form of Dylan Express, placed first, as compared with its recent form. The trainer reported that there were two contributing factors to the success. Firstly, his yard was under a cloud last year with a viral infection that lasted for most of the year and he trained his sole winner in November. Since then the horses have shown improved form and this is his second winner in a short space of time. Secondly, Dylan Express became very upset in stalls at Bellewstown last August and since then had given problems at the start most notably the last day at Cork when becoming very upset in stalls and consequently ran very disappointingly. Today a hood was reapplied and this seemed to have a positive effect. Having considered the evidence the Stewards noted the content of the report.
