The pedigree suggested the step up in trip. We took our time with her. The last time in Ballinrobe we just have to draw a line through that race - nothing worked out for her and she didn't handle the track. She obviously likes a good galloping track, so we thought we would take the chance and try to step her up now. She is going to be a staying mare and she is going to improve again from three to four. The pedigree suggests she stays. She was a big filly all along and we had to take our time with her. We think she is going to be a nice filly. The idea is, if we don't sell her, to keep her in training. Hopefully, that will open up a window for the jumping. We were considering to go to Newmarket Sales or the mares' sales in November with her. We will see how that goes, if there is any interest.
Natalia Lupini, trainer
D. Browne McMonagle, rider of Billie Frechette, trained by Noel Meade, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount got no luck in running
The Raceday Stewards reviewed an incident inside the final furlong involving Sign From Above, ridden by B.M
Coen, placed third, and Billie Frechette, ridden by D. Browne McMonagle, placed second, where it appeared Billie Frechette shifted slightly left into the path of Sign From Above. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the matter, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that no further action was warranted
The Raceday Stewards requested a report from Natalia Lupini, trainer, as to the apparent improvement in form of Alba Chiara, placed first, as compared with its most recent run at Ballinrobe on the 21st of July. Natalia Lupini reported that the filly was post race normal on Veterinary examination after the race the last day but her jockey reported that she failed to handle the undulations of the Ballinrobe track. Having considered the report the Raceday Stewards noted the explanation given.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (80 = 10st)
