That was great. He's a proper good horse and I think he was sick when he ran in the Albert Bartlett,. We went over with four or five to Cheltenham and most of them came home sick. We rushed him back to Perth and he probably wasn't right that day. I was happy enough that he was a lot better than that. This has been the target since then. He had a few issues with his jumping over hurdles but when we schooled him over fences we knew he was going to be better. It was a good performance, it's probably the best beginners chase I’ve seen in Galway in a long time. Fine, they all finished in a heap but he got the job done. His owner is here and I'm delighted. I'd say he could end up in Cheltenham in October, on nice ground. We'll give him a nice freshen up after this and decide. The fact that he handles two-miles-six around here you could be thinking about next year for the Plate, but that's a long way off. This was a plan that we had and it's come off so I’m delighted as they often don't.

The Raceday Stewards interviewed D.J Gilligan, rider of Talk In The Park, concerning his use of the whip in the closing stages of this race. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned who accepted he was in breach of the whip regulation and apologised for his actions. Evidence was also heard from the IHRB Veterinary Officer along with photographic evidence. Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that D.J. Gilligan was in breach of R.10.3(g)(frequency) and R.10.3(f)(excessive force)
Having considered his record in this regard (second offence under R.10.3(g) and first offence under R.10.3(f), they suspended him for six racedays
P. Townend, rider of Uncle Pat, trained by W.P. Mullins, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount made too many mistakes and made a bad mistake at the last ditch.
