Race Conditions

Irish HorseRacing Regulatory Board

P. Townend, rider of Blue Sari (FR), trained by W.P. Mullins, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount burst a blood vessel and pulled up

The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer examined Blue Sari (FR), trained by W.P. Mullins, at the request of the Raceday Stewards and reported the animal to have blood at the nostrils post race

The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer examined Maxxum, trained by Gordon Elliott, at the request of the Raceday Stewards and reported the animal to be grazed inside the full length of the right hind cannon but was otherwise post race normal

The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident on the home turn involving Maxxum, ridden by C.M. Quirke, unplaced, and Blue Sari (FR), ridden by P. Townend, pulled up, where it appeared Maxxum ran up onto the heels of Blue Sari (FR). Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. P. Townend stated that his mount had burst a blood vessel at this point of the race and stopped quickly at a time when the runners were bunched together. C.M

Quirke stated that Blue Sari came back very quickly and left his own mount with nowhere to go because of the bunched field of runners. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were of the opinion that any interference which occurred was accidental and they took no further action

The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident just after the winning post involving Maxxum, ridden by C.M

Quirke, unplaced, and Jungle Prose, ridden by C. McGivern, unplaced, where it appeared that Maxxum ran up onto the heels of Jungle Prose and stumbled. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. C.M. Quirke stated that he was starting to pull up after the race when Jungle Prose came back into his path. C. McGivern stated that he was pulling up and had nothing further to add. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were of the opinion that any interference which occurred was accidental and they took no further action.
