John Flood from Boardsmill Stud bought her to breed from. He said he would give her a chance and see how she goes. Delighted to have a winner for John. Both he and Faye (Morris, wife) are very good friends of mine. She will mix chasing and hurdling. There is a race in England in three weeks time at Huntingdon that we are going to go for - a mares' Listed chase. Gordon Elliott, trainer

The Raceday Stewards interviewed Gavin Cromwell, trainer of Millforce, in relation to the late withdrawal of his charge who holds an engagement at Thurles tomorrow. Evidence was heard from the trainer concerned who stated that he declared his charge for today because of a dry forecast and had hoped the ground would dry out more than it had. He added that he was keen to run for a very good pot today but having walked the track and spoken to riders that had ridden earlier he did not feel the going was suitable for his charge. Having considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that no further action was warranted

Evidence was heard from the rider concerned who accepted he was in breach of the regulation and apologised for his actions. Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that J. Coen was in breach of Regulation 10.3.g (excessive frequency) and having considered his record in this regard (first offence) the Raceday Stewards suspended J. Coen for four racedays

The Raceday Stewards reviewed the second approach by the field to the starter where it appeared that Koori Star, ridden by J.
