He wasn't winning out of turn. I needed it more than him! . He has been running well the whole year and he is only learning to settle. I thought he would have won by now but he was just too free. I was trying to hold him up all year and get him to settle and maybe that is the right thing to do with him. We had no choice but to make the running today as it was a poor race.

The Stewards informed P.J. Rothwell, trainer, that a repeat of the poor performance of Mr Perrie, would render the horse liable to suspension. The Stewards fined P.J. Rothwell, trainer, €350 for lodging a passport in respect of Mr Perrie, in which the vaccinations did not conform with the provisions of Rule 91. The Stewards allowed the horse to run on receipt of the trainer's written assurance that the vaccinations were in order. A. Ring, rider of Mr Perrie, trained by P.J. Rothwell, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount hung badly and ran out.
