Capaill Eile Gets A 60 Day Ban

The Stewards interviewed Paul John Gilligan trainer, concerning the poor performance of Capall Eile in the second race.

Evidence was heard from the trainer concerned who stated that his charge was a very relaxed horse at home but got very worked up at the races causing him to burst a blood vessel at Sligo on May fourth and again today.

Following the running of this race Capall Eile was examined by the Turf Club Veterinary Officer at the request of the Stewards and was found to have burst a blood vessel.

Having considered the evidence and taken the horses previous veterinary record into account, the Stewards suspended Capall Eile for 60 day?s under Rule 87.
