Prior to the start of race three the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Clerk of the Course changed the going to good.

The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident after the last hurdle involving My Good Pal, ridden by Mr B.M. Coonan, placed fifth, and Pleasureofpressure, ridden by D. Robinson, placed fourth, where it appeared interference had occurred. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. Mr B.M. Coonan stated that he received pressure from his right. D. Robinson stated that when he took his hand off the rein his mount went left and he corrected as soon as he was able. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards found D. Robinson, was in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly and having considered his clean record in this regard the Raceday Stewards suspended him for two days.

A. Leahy, rider of Keep It Cool, trained by John Joseph Hanlon, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount never travelled and jumped badly.

D. Robinson, rider of Pleasureofpressure, trained by P.J. Rothwell, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount hung left up the home straight.
