The Stewards enquired into an incident in the closing stages of this race involving Milanette ridden by Mr M.P. Fogarty, placed second and Last Draw ridden by Mr C.D. Sharkey, unplaced (unseated rider) where it appeared Last Draw ran the wrong side of a railed off doll and carried Milanette the wrong side also.

Evidence was heard from the riders concerned.

Having viewed the video of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were of the opinion Mr M.P. Fogarty had, through no fault of his own, taken the wrong course, as detailed under Regulation 9, and they disqualified him from second place, and they amended the result to read. 1st Ballymak 2nd Do The Bookies 3rd Master Cullen 4th Carsonstown Boy

They were however of the opinion Mr C.D.Sharkey had ridden carelessly, causing both his mount, Last Draw and Milanette to take the wrong course, and they suspended him for 9 racedays (tbc).

Mr Ion Hamilton, Turf Club Clerk of the Course, also attended this enquiry.
