The Stewards interviewed M.P. Sheehy, rider of Doonard Prince, concerning his use of the whip in the closing stages of this race. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned in the presence of Mr. Kevin O' Ryan. Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that M.P. Sheehy was in breach of Regulation 10.3 (g) in that he used his whip with excessive frequency, and having considered his record in this regard suspended him for 2 racedays.

The Stewards enquired into an incident 2 furlongs from the finish involving Wild Cherry, ridden by M.P. Sheehy, Funny Little Ways, ridden by S.M. Crosse and Star Of Cashel, ridden by C.D.

Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were of the opinion that the incident was accidental in nature and they therefore took no further action.
