271E Goffs Vincent O'Brien National Stakes

The Raceday Stewards enquired into possible interference approximately 100 yards from the finish involving Henri Matisse, ridden by R.L. Moore, placed second, and Seagulls Eleven, ridden by O. Murphy, placed third, where it appeared these horses bumped. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. O. Murphy stated that as Henri Matisse came up on his outside he tired and rolled around and bumped his horse. He confirmed that his horse was a good third and Henri Matisse was a good second. R.L. Moore stated that as he came with his challenge his horse went left at which point he corrected him and his mount drifts back. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were of the opinion that while Henri Matisse had caused interference to Seagulls Eleven he did not improve his finishing position as a result of this interference so they made no alteration to the Judge’s placings. Furthermore, the Raceday Stewards did not apportion blame to any rider and took no further action.

R.L. Moore, rider of Henri Matisse, trained by A.P.O'Brien, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount ran around and hung both ways.
