P. Townend, rider of Rupert Lamb (GB) trained by W.P. Mullins, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount burst a blood vessel during this race.. The Turf Club Veterinary Officer examined Rupert Lamb (GB), trained by W.P. Mullins, at the request of the Stewards and reported the animal to have burst a blood vessel. J.J. Burke, rider of Theos Well (GB) trained by Michael Winters, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount was pulled up after losing his action. The Stewards enquired into possible interference inside the final furlong involving Gusty Rocky, ridden by R. Loughran, placed fifth, Black Warrior, ridden by P.T. Enright, placed first and Coolmill, ridden by C.M. Collins, placed second, where it appeared that both Gusty Rocky and Coolmill ran short of room when challenging Black Warrior. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that Black Warrior in causing interference to Gusty Rocky and Coolmill had not improved his placing over either of them and therefore made no alteration to the Judges placings. They were, however, of the opinion that P.T. Enright had ridden carelessly and suspended him for 1 raceday having taken his good previous record into consideration.
