Speaking at the annual press briefing of the Turf Club in Dublin yesterday, Pierce Molony, senior steward, indicated that the original objections to the grandstand had been lodged almost a year ago and he hoped a decision was imminent, which would enable work to begin.

Molony said that the design team was currently evaluating the impact of the delays with a view to setting out a new timetable to enable racing to proceed uninterrupted while construction was going on.
