The Stewards received a report from the Clerk of the Scales, Ms. A. O'Keeffe, that Ms. K. L.

Evidence was heard from the rider concerned who stated that this was her first ride and at declaration time she was confident she could do the weight. Evidence was also heard form Thomas Cleary, trainer, who stated that he was happy for Ms. Derwin to ride the horse as this is a family owned animal and he would be withdrawing the horse if she could not ride. Having considered the evidence, the Stewards under the provisions of Rule 198(vii)(b) allowed the overweight on this occasion. The Stewards were, however, satisfied that Ms. K. L.
