See also » Fold provides Gilligan & Elliott with further Galway Plate glory I've been coming here ever since I can remember and just even to be riding in these races it's a massive privilege. I can't thank Gordon and his owners enough to be giving me the chances and I'm delighted for the way it worked out. He (Gordon) has had great luck in this race and he's so easy to ride for. He leaves it up to us and he knows the story in these big races. You could go out with a plan and it could change very quick. There is no pressure going out and I can't thank him enough. He jumped super and since he has got nice ground he is really starting to improve with every run. I wasn't sure after the last day because he got a bit of a hike after winning at Ballinrobe. I knew he had a live chance and he proved today that he is a top quality horse. I've been on a bit of a dry spell at the minute but days like this are what we dream of and I just can't believe it. He's a right horse. Bobby O'Ryan bought him for David (L'Estrange) and John (Wright) and the boys have been very patient with him, he was a bit backward when he was young. This race has been the plan for a while so I'm delighted the lads are here, it's a dream for the lads to be here and win the race. Bobby put the syndicate together so all credit has to go to him. Everything worked out great. Danny got away at the start and the horse jumped like a buck, I think he just missed one into the dip. Everything went right and it was poetry in motion.

Evidence was heard from the riders concerned who collectively felt that the late arrival of Buddy One to the start had contributed to a need for a second approach. Having viewed the recording of the incident and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were also of the view that the late arrival of Buddy One and the decision of his rider not to get his girths checked were a contributing factor so they noted the explanations offered on this occasion.
