101A Tote Always SP Or Better (Fillies) M'dn

The Stewards enquired into an incident in the closing stages involving Chestnutter, ridden by G.M. Ryan, Lady Arwen, ridden by L.T. McAteer and Tiny Bit, ridden by J. Coen, where it appeared that Lady Arwen got tight for room. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. G.M. Ryan stated that he had maintained a straight line and only suffered slight interference for a stride. L.T. McAteer stated that things got a bit tight and his mount also rolled around slightly. J. Coen stated that his mount was outpaced early but was staying on well so he went for the same gap as Mr. McAteer but then took back out of it. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were of the opinion that any interference which occurred was accidental in nature and they took no further action. Mrs. E. O'Farrell accompanied J. Coen at this enquiry.
