Permission was given for Tiare (FR) to wear a red hood to the start.

The Starter reported that Tiare (FR) was the subject of a third criteria failure.

Kevin Philippart de Foy was informed that the filly could not run until the day after passing a stalls test.

Leaving the stalls, the winner, Eternal Glory (IRE), jumped right-handed inconveniencing Pearl Of Kuwait (IRE), unplaced, which had already been slowly into stride, but after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved and that it had not improved the placing of Eternal Glory (IRE).

Approximately 3½ furlongs out, NIKKI’S GIRL (IRE), placed third, edged slightly left-handed crowding Arab Cinder (IRE), placed fifth, onto Pearl Of Kuwait (IRE), unplaced, which lost its position on the rail after being tightened for racing room but after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved and that it had not improved the placing of any horse.

On the run to the line, Arab Cinder (IRE), placed fifth, lugged quickly left-handed before being corrected by its rider, causing Boadicea Belle (IRE), unplaced, to be short of room on the rail, but after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved and that it had not improved the placing of Arab Cinder (IRE).

An enquiry was held to consider interference inside the final half furlong involving Arab Cinder (IRE), placed fifth, ridden by Jefferson Smith and Dark Enchantment (IRE), unplaced, ridden by David Nolan.

Smith was cautioned for careless riding as he had angled his mount left-handed when insufficiently clear of a weakening Dark Enchantment (IRE), briefly hampering that runner.

Following the race, Isobel Francis reported that Pearl Of Kuwait (IRE), unplaced, was never travelling; the Veterinary Officer reported that a post-race examination of the filly failed to reveal any abnormalities.
