Sheehy, and Tagg's Island, ridden by N.G. McCullagh, where it appeared the field tightened on the inner. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. M.P. Sheehy gave his evidence in the presence of Mr. L. Cleary. M.P. Sheehy stated that his mount broke slowly but he took her forward to the rail where she raced keenly and got a bump from the outside. T.P. Madden stated that his mount broke smartly and he allowed her to roll forward, however she lacks a gear and there was more speed in front of him and he took back. N.G. McCullagh stated that he broke well, he stayed straight to the poles where the field funnelled, his mount charged a little and he reined back and got tightened for a stride or two. C.T. Keane stated that his mount jumped well and he gradually went across after the marker poles where the inner got tight for a stride. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards considered that the incident was caused by accidental interference and therefore took no further action.
