Mouriyani (13/2) looks a nice sort for Dermot Weld judging by his debut success in the Anglo Printers Maiden at Dundalk under Oisin Orr.

Uneasy in the market, the 107-rated Bandiuc Eile (evens) faded inside the final couple of furlongs having put the pace to the race. Jim Bolger's Group Two 2nd placer disappointingly weakened into sixth and could be dropping in trip after this.

It turned out that second favourite Pearlman (6/4 from 7/4 on track, and from bigger earlier) was the one to give Mouriyani most to do, and half a length eventually split them. Aaron Boy at 100/1 took the 'bronze medal,' two and a quarter lengths off the front pair.

“He was still fairly green but when I did ask him he knuckled down to it well,” said Orr.

“He just ran around a bit the last furlong or so but I'd say he'll improve a lot and he could be a nice colt.

“There were a few in it and the favourite was highly enough rated so to go and do that was impressive.”

The Stewards fined Kieran Purcell, trainer, €350 for lodging a passport in respect of Dsoloman, in which the vaccinations did not conform with the provisions of Rule 91.

The Stewards ordered the withdrawal of Dsoloman in accordance with the provisions of Rule 90.

The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer examined Bandiuc Eile, trained by J. S. Bolger, at the request of the Stewards and reported the animal to be post race normal. Samples were taken for analysis.

The Stewards interviewed K.J. Manning, rider of Bandiuc Eile, trained by J. S. Bolger, concerning his riding in the closing stages where he appeared to ease his mount close to the finish and lost fifth place.

Evidence was heard from the rider concerned who stated that his mount travelled well until the two furlong marker and suddenly got legless.

In his opinion he tried to hold her together for the last few strides but she went forward when left alone.

He was unable to explain her action in the latter stages but was satisfied that there was no specific fault to report that may have affected her performance.

Having viewed the recording and considered the evidence, the Stewards took no further action. Mr Robert Dore, Chairman of the Acting Sterwards absented himself from this enquiry and Mr N. B. Wachman acted as Chairman.
