It’s marvellous and we’ve only got around 15 jumpers so it’s great to be back in this winner’s enclosure. It’s probably about a third of what we used to have and we have around 45 Flat horses, but this is just great. I have had all his family and he was bred by a very good friend of mine from my childhood, Christopher McKeever. This fellow is the best of him and I had a feeling he would handle the ground as he is light. I’d say he has plenty of speed so if he’s back here next year it would be over two miles. His jumping needs some ironing out but we can work on that now.

THE WEATHERBYS CHAMPION BUMPER (IN MEMORY OF SIR JOHNNY WEATHERBY) (A STANDARD OPEN NATIONAL HUNT FLAT RACE) (CLASS 1) (Grade 1) (GBB RACE) Permission was given for Boycetown (IRE), Keep Him Company (FR), Tally Ho Back (GB), The Skecher (FR), Wilde's Legacy (IRE), With Nolimit (FR), and Mets Ta Ceinture (FR) to wear a red hood to post, for Diamant Dore (FR) to go early to post, and for It's Only A Game (FR) to go early to post wearing a red hood.
Moonverrin (IRE) wore earplugs which were removed at the start.
The Mourne Rambler (IRE) wore earplugs throughout the race.
IT’S ONLY A GAME (FR) slipped and unseated Mr J L Gleeson on the way to the start.
Having been checked by the Veterinary Surgeon and Doctor at the start respectively, both were deemed fit to race.
After an initial false start, the start was effected successfully on the second attempt.
However, having reviewed recordings of the false start, the Starters were satisfied that no riders should be reported for contravening the starting procedures.
Shortly after the start, The Irish Avatar (IRE), unplaced, shifted slightly right-handed at the same time as Quiryn (FR), placed sixth, shifted left-handed, resulting in Of Land And Sea (IRE), unplaced, being bumped and becoming short for room, but after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved, and that it had not improved the placing of Quiryn (FR).
Shortly thereafter, a free running Of Land And Sea (IRE)’s saddle slipped forward with the rider unable to assist his mount and lose his irons as a result.
On the bend turning round the top of the hill on the first circuit, Diamant Dore (FR), placed fifth, became short of room in a tightly bunched field and as a result clipped the heels of Our Trigger (IRE), unplaced, but after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved.
Following the race, Mr P W Mullins reported that Love Sign D'aunou (FR), unplaced, was unsuited by the Going, officially described as Good on this occasion, and would prefer an easier surface.
