We tried a hood on him the last day and he kind of fell asleep with it so we rode him more at home with it just to take the fizz out of him. It seems to have worked for him today. The ease in the ground helped and I think the straight track helped as well because he just gets a bit keen when he's tight upsides. We always thought a lot of him. His mark has dropped down but it was more his head that was the problem as he was running too free and not using himself properly in his races. We had to work a lot on that at home. He has ability and if he could just settle and do his job he would be a great horse.
P J F Murphy, trainer
At the request of the Stewards, D.N. Curran, rider of Treble Cone (GB), trained by Gerard Keane, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that he had to check his mount in running.
The Stewards interviewed Mr. P.J.F. Murphy, trainer of Hit The Silk, into the apparent improvement in form of his charge. Mr Murphy reported that his charge met with interference the previous day in Limerick, he felt his charge is better over 7 furlongs, he also added that the application of a hood, his charge settling much better and the straight track today all helped to bring about the apparent improvement in form. Mr. Garry O' Gorman, The I.H.R.B. Handicapper, also gave evidence. Having considered all the evidence, the Stewards noted the explanation offered.
