The Stewards enquired into possible interference in the closing stages involving Dalton Highway, ridden by Mr F

Maguire, placed first and Royal Illusion, ridden by Mr P.W. Mullins, placed fourth, where it appeared that interference may have occurred. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. Mr. F. Maguire stated that they raced very close and his mount rolled out a little when he pulled his whip through to his left. Mr. P. W. Mullins stated that he felt pressure from his inside pushing him out but he did not feel it cost him the race. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that while Dalton Highway had caused interference to Royal Illusion, he did not improve his finishing position as a result of this interference so they made no alteration to the Judge's placings. They were however, satisfied that Mr. F. Maguire was in breach of Rule 214, in that he had ridden carelessly. Having considered Mr. F. Maguire's record in this regard the Stewards suspended Mr. F. Maguire for two racedays GENERAL INFORMATION The following Raceday Stewards acted on behalf of the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board at this race meeting: Mr. John Moloney (Chairman), Mr. Paddy Barry, Mr. Michael Doyle, Mr. L. Walsh
