Race Conditions

The Turf Club

The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident in between the second last and last hurdle involving King Kali, ridden by K.C. Sexton, placed first, Fighting Falcon ridden by P.T. Enright, placed fifth, and Big Dee, ridden by G.B. Noonan, placed third, where it appeared interference may have occurred. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. P.T. Enright stated that he received a bump but that his horse has only one eye and he overexaggerated

K.C. Sexton stated that his mount wandered slightly but felt Fighting Falcon overexaggerated. G.B. Noonan stated that Fighting Falcon came in to his mount and he lugged left. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards advised K.C. Sexton to be more aware of horses on his inside in future. Furthermore, they were satisfied that G.B. Noonan was in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly, and having considered his clean record in this regard the Raceday Stewards suspended him for two racedays

The Raceday Stewards reviewed an incident after the last hurdle involving Is Charlie Around, ridden by C.P

Millar, and Fighting Falcon, ridden by P.T. Enright, where it appeared contact was made between the two. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the matter, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that no further action was warranted

J.C. Gainford, rider of Metamorpheus, trained by Andrew McNamara, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount did not handle the ground

The Raceday Stewards received a report from the IHRB Veterinary Officer, Dr. Graham Adams, where it appeared that Peaceinthevalley ridden by M.P. O'Connor had whip marks on its hind quarters post race. The Raceday Stewards interviewed M.P. O'Connor concerning his use of the whip in the closing stages of this race. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned and the IHRB Veterinary Officer. Dr. Graham Adams showed photographic evidence of his findings which were accepted by M.P. O'Connor. M.P. O'Connor stated that he lost his whip in Leopardstown yesterday and that he was using a new whip. He further added that he gave his whip a wipe so it may have been damp. Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards found M.P. O'Connor was in breach of R.10.3(f)(force) and having considered his clean record in this regard, they suspended him for two racedays

GENERAL INFORMATION The following Raceday Stewards acted on behalf of the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board at this race meeting: Mr. Colm O'Flaherty (Chairman), Mr. J. O'Shaughnessy, Mr. M. Lyons, Mrs. Frankie Ward, Mr. C.J. Sweeney

The Raceday Stewards used their powers under Rule 29 to appoint Mr. M. King to act as Security Officer at this meeting
