The Flynn Hotels Handicap Hurdle went to the sponsors through their Stowaway gelding, Goodbye Someday in the feature event on day one of the August festival at Tramore.

Not surprisingly John Kiely had the six-year-old well primed for this assignment and the money was strongly behind him as he went off 11/10 favourite.

Always prominent under Eoin Walsh (a first winner on his first ride for the Kielys), Goodbye Someday, now a dual Tramore victor, was too strong for his opponents over the closing couple of flights.

Silver Star chased him home at a distance of five and a half lengths.

Tom Kiely, assistant trainer and John's nephew, said: "He obviously likes it around here. He had a good run in Galway the last day. We thought the handicapper might have him and that's why we took the seven off with Eoin. He is great value for that claim.

"The rain that fell helped as it took the sting out of the ground. This was the plan for him really and it's great for the Flynn family as they sponsor the race.

"He jumps super and will jump a fence in time."

The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer examined Enzani trained by Gordon Elliott, at the request of the Stewards and reported the animal to be post race normal but old previous left fore tendon injury was noted. Samples were taken for further analysis.

K.M. Donoghue, rider of Enzani trained by Gordon Elliott, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount lost it's action and was pulled up.

The Stewards enquired into the running and riding of Enzani, ridden by K.M. Donoghue, and trained by Gordon Elliott which was pulled up having jumped the third last hurdle.

Evidence was heard from the rider and the authorised representative for the trainer concerned.

K.M. Donoghue, stated that he thought his mount had gone wrong when racing up the hill on the final circuit and he started to pull him up after the fourth last hurdle but jumped the third last at a very slow pace.

Furthermore he added that when he pulled up, the horse was sound but he dismounted because he felt it was the correct thing to do.

He stated that he rides the horse out regularly at home and rides him in all his work therefore he knows the horse well.

He reminded the Stewards that he had schooled the animal yesterday and overall he was an easy going horse which came here today expected to improve from his last run and to have a winning chance.

In his opinion he said that he was a big type of horse running on a sharp track.

Ian Amond, authorised representative of Gordon Elliot stated that Enzani had his issues in the past but that he had been working away in a routine at home and arrived at the races in good form.

He advised the Stewards the animals previous history would show gaps between runs which signified problems in training.

He was satisfied that K.M. Donoghue had done the correct thing by pulling up Enzani when he had felt something was amiss.

He confirmed that the use of a weighing scales was not a common practice in their yard.

The Stewards informed both persons that the betting market had shown a substantial drift for Enzani from an opening price of 100/30 to a returned price of 12/1.

Neither person could assist on this matter.

The Stewards also received a report from the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer who stated that Enzani was post race normal but noted a settled previous old tendon injury on it's left fore.

Samples were taken for analysis.

Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards noted the explanations given.
