I fancied him but heard a world of talk about Willie Mullins’ horse. I was amazed how easily he cruised into the race and he deserved to get it (in the stewards’ room), I think. I’d say he could be sold. The owner (daughter Sarah Ann) wants to sell, she wants money!. He’s a full-brother to (three-time winner) Forgetthesurprise Niall Madden, trainer

The Raceday Stewards enquired into possible interference inside the final furlong involving I Will Be Baie (FR), ridden by Mr P.W. Mullins, placed first, and Onlyamatteroftime, ridden by S. O'Callaghan, placed second where it appeared interference took place. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. S. O' Callaghan stated that he had followed Mr. P. W. Mullins and challenged on his outside, but received contact and was carried wide which he felt had cost him the race. Mr. P.W. Mullins stated that his mount ran green in the home straight, but was satisfied that he had corrected his mount immediately before going on to win which he felt was never in doubt. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that I Will Be Baie had caused interference to Onlyamatteroftime and in doing so had improved its finishing position in relation to the second placed horse and they therefore reversed the Judge's placings. Result now reads: First: Onlyamatteroftime Second: I Will Be Baie Third: Fad Eadrainn Fourth: Master Otis Fifth: Aine Beag Sixth: Silas Marner Furthermore, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that Mr P.W. Mullins was in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly by continuing to use his whip in his right hand after his mount had started to drift left. Having taken his previous record in this regard into account, the Raceday Stewards suspended Mr P.W. Mullins for 1 raceday
