The Stewards reviewed an incident close to the winning post involving Temptationinmilan, ridden by D.J

McInerney, placed third and Joan Of Pimlico, ridden by B.P. Kennedy, placed fourth, where it appeared Temptationinmilan was short of room to challenge. Having viewed the recording of that part of the race and considered the matter, the Stewards were satisfied that no action was warranted

The Stewards requested a report from Martin Brassil, trainer, as to the apparent improvement in form of A Different World, placed first, as compared with its recent form. David Brassil, Authorised representative for Martin Brassil reported that their charge was unsuited by being enclosed in a big field of runners whereas he was suited by today's small field of runners and the ease in the ground conditions. Having considered the evidence the Stewards noted the content of the report.
