We're delighted. She had a good draw so obviously Ryan used it again. The next day we'll take our time with her,. Ryan was very happy with her, he said she ran straight through the line. He said he felt that the ground was a little bit deep for her, she's a very low mover, but he was very happy with her. He said she's ready to take her time and teach her now. We think if everything is well we'll go to the Debutante and take our time with her. The first day she ran she hit the gates and Ryan did the right thing. Today she had the draw and she did the same thing. Ryan said she was probably doing plenty for him in front but he was there and it was the right thing to do, he gave her a beautiful ride. Hopefully now it'll be the Debutante before, if she goes to, the Moyglare and we'll let her sit in and relax. She's very genuine, tried very hard and wears her heart on her sleeve. Natural is a good way to describe her. A P O'Brien, trainer

The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident about one and a half furlongs from the finish line involving Nemonte, ridden by M.P. Sheehy, placed fourth, and Vespertilio (FR), ridden by W.J. Lee, placed second, where it appeared Nemonte had to check. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. In his evidence, W.J.Lee stated that his mount switched his leads and over exaggerated when he made his challenge. M.P. Sheehy stated that his mount lugged outwards and inwards out of greenness when Vespertilio(FR) made his challenge to go by him

Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were of the opinion that W.J.Lee was in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly. Having considered his record in this regard the Raceday Stewards suspended W.J.Lee for two Racedays
