The Stewards interviewed A.J.Martin, trainer of Oighear Dubh, regarding the late arrival of the horse into the Parade Ring. Evidence was heard from the trainer who stated that this animal has been difficult in the past and furthermore the tongue strap kept loosening after being fitted. Having considered the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that A.J. Martin was in breach of Rule 32(ii) by failing to parade his charge in the ring a reasonable time before the signal to mount was given and consequently severely cautioned him having taken his previous recent record into consideration.
