He loved it there. The ground was too heavy in Gowran for him and he missed the third last which you can't do that there,. In heavy ground he just didn't get back into it but he still ran a good race. It was a higher-rated race and they were 7lbs higher horses. He loves to be in charge and that boy gave him a super ride. He did everything he was told. I was confident. He likes it here and if you like it here you have a chance of going in again. If we get another race like that he could go for it but he could certainly jump a fence as well, he's a big horse. We wouldn't bother with very deep ground anymore. We let him off last winter and he went to Dundalk but he wasn't mad about Dundalk.
Desmond McDonogh, trainer
The Stewards interviewed Neil McKnight, trainer, in relation to his request to substitute R.C. Colgan with A.W. Short. Evidence was heard from the trainer concerned who stated that as R.C. Colgan was injured, his preferred choice of rider is A.W. Short. He explained that Better Back Bob is a difficult horse to ride, and A.W. Short has schooled him and ridden him in work and in his opinion he is the best suited replacement rider for today's race. Having considered the evidence, the Stewards noted Neil Mc Knight's explanation and allowed the substitution of rider in this instance.
