Halford. Evidence was heard from the rider and authorised representative for the trainer concerned. R.P. Whelan, stated that his mount had run a very nice race first time out and then disappointed on its next start on slower ground. He stated that his instructions today were to sit mid division and build into the race, however he ended up further back in the field then desired and then had his run checked several times in the straight and he got frustrated and eased his mount. Furthermore, he admitted that he should have furnished a report to the Clerk of the Scales

Nikica Jenjic, authorised representative for M. Halford, confirmed the instructions given and stated that they felt their charge was unlucky in the straight. The Stewards also received a report from the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer who stated that Mirage More was post race normal and samples were taken for analysis

Furthermore, the Stewards found R. P. Whelan in breach of Rule 213(ii), in that he had failed to report anything that might have affected the running of his mount. Having considered R. P. Whelans record in this regard the Stewards suspended R. P. Whelan for one raceday.
