The Raceday Stewards interviewed H.D. McGuigan, trainer, concerning the failure to nominate a rider before the designated time for Joe Masseria. Evidence was heard from the trainer concerned who stated that he was unsure whether the animal was going to run and left it too late to nominate a rider. Having considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards allowed the nomination of Miss A.B. O'Connor but found the trainer in breach of Rule 195(i) and having take his record into account imposed a fine of €200

The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident approximately one furlong from the finish involving Good Heavens, ridden by Rachael Blackmore, Bialystok, ridden by Miss J. Townend, Jungle Cove, ridden by Siobhan Rutledge, and San Martino, ridden by Aileen O'Sullivan where it appeared Bialystok got tight for room. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. Siobhan Rutledge stated that she missed the break, has come to make a run when her mount got intimidation but it didn't affect her, she heard a shout and corrected. Aileen O'Sullivan stated that she kept a straight line when she got tight for room. Miss J. Townend stated that her horse was beaten when Jungle Cove came across, she gave a shout and received interference. Rachael Blackmore stated that she was on the outside, her mount leaned in marginally for half a stride and the incident was due to a sandwiching effect

Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards felt the incident was caused by interference from both sides and did not apportion blame to any rider and took no further action

The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer examined Bialystok, trained by W.P. Mullins, at the request of the Raceday Stewards and reported the animal to be post race normal

Miss G. Benson, rider of Scholarship, trained by Gerard O'Leary, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that her mount was slowly away

Siobhan Rutledge, rider of Jungle Cove, trained by Mrs John Harrington, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that her mount was slowly away.
