we had really been looking forward to today and that is my first Graded win since 2011. It is a long time since we’ve had a horse like this and we’ve had a few false dawns, so it is brilliant to have one like him. I put the tongue-tie back on Ol Man Dingle today — he doesn’t need it but I wasn’t taking any chances. Ricky gave him a lovely ride, the horse has brilliant scope but can be a little brave. During his career prep, we thought an awful lot of him so went for a bumper, but he made a noise and choked. He had never given us that indication beforehand so he had a wind operation but it took him a run or two to get his confidence. He had a bad virus at the end of last season, my yard went down with something around April and May when we had few runners and he has done well to come back from it.
Eoin Griffin, trainer

The Raceday Stewards received a report from Ms. Avena O'Keeffe, Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Clerk of the Scales, regarding the fact that Mr T. Costello, rider of Asian Master, weighed in at 1.8 lbs overweight
Evidence was heard from the rider concerned, who stated that he had struggled to get down to todays weight and had taken a drink after weighing out. Having considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that Mr. T. Costello was in breach of Rule 231 and in considering his clean record in this regard they suspended him for one raceday.
