He had his ground as the day he previously won in Gowran, it was almost unraceable. He had a good run back following a break the last day and just improved a little bit from it,. We were confident enough coming here although these (William Hill Series) races are becoming very competitive as trainers are targeting them for the points. . We'll look at Limerick over Christmas next, as he loves heavy ground. If we got traditional Christmas ground, it would be right into his barrow.
Eoin Griffin, trainer

The Raceday Stewards reviewed an incident close to the line involving Great Island, ridden by C.M Hogan, placed first, and Maciver, ridden by D.J. O'Keeffe, placed second, where it appeared they came close together. 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 enquired into the circumstances where it appeared Great Island ridden by C.M. Hogan and trained by Eoin Griffin crossed the parade ring after being mounted. Evidence was heard from the C.M. Hogan who stated that the groom crossed the parade ring as horses stopped in front of them. Having considered all the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that Eoin Griffin was in breach of Regulation sixteen and in considering his clean record in this regard they fined him €100 on this occasion.
