It was great and Adam's (Lord, owner) two sons Adam and Jack have done a lot of work with her at home. One of the first horses I had in training Salford City, who Adam owned, got me going and it is nice to get another winner for him. She had a low weight and I thought she'd run alright as she was getting a stone off the favourite and had a good run at Dundalk the last day. She liked the ground and jumped well. She will win on the flat and will mix between hurdles and the Flat and we'll think about the Lartigue Hurdle (Listowel in September) for her. Jack (Kennedy) said they went no gallop and it didn't suit As Tears Go By. That probably played into Jordan's (Gainford) hands as the winner had Flat speed. Gordon Elliott, trainer

The Stewards received a report from Mr. P.L. Malone , Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Clerk of the Scales, regarding the fact that D.F. O'Regan , rider of Gaoth Chuil , weighed in at 1.9 lbs overweight. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned, who stated that he weighed out perfectly and did not change any equipment or take on any fluids. T.M. Walsh, trainer of Gaoth Chuil, stated that he saddled his charge with the exact equipment as passed at scales, namely, a nice size saddle, a black pad and a number cloth . Having considered the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that D.F. O'Regan was in breach of Rule 231 (iii) for weighing in at more than 1 lb overweight. Having taken his previous clean record into consideration, the Stewards suspended D.F. O'Regan for one raceday.
