That is our first Listed horse and is my biggest win. It mightn't have been the strongest race but it still took winning, it is a lovely pot and the (Complete Package) syndicate are enjoying it. He is a big raw horse and is improving all the time so the dream is still alive. He is learning about the game and once he stays in one piece, he has a bright future. He won't go on winter ground so we'll put him away now until next spring. The syndicate are mad to travel (to Britain) but it was me all along who was holding back. We can now start about thinking about the likes of the Aintree festival and he has such a laid-back way of racing that you could aim him at a lot of different places. I was also delighted with Carrigg Island although Darragh (O'Keeffe) said he was leaning into the cut-up ground. He will make a lovely novice chaser next summer. Eoin Christopher McCarthy, trainer

C.M. Quirke, rider of Kilbuny Supersonic, trained by Richard J. O'Hara, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount pulled up lame after the line

The Raceday Stewards received a report from the Clerk of the Scales, Ms. A. O'Keeffe, that J.J. Slevin, rider of Dramatic License, had weighed in 1.1lbs overweight. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned who stated that a combination of rain and kickback had contributed to the overweight. Having considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards accepted the riders explanation and took no further action.
