Illuminating excerpt from the RP article: Mods, please remove if it's a problem
Speaking on RTE television following Off You Go's third successive victory at the Dublin Racing Festival, Byrnes insisted: "I don't lay horses, I back horses."

He added of the IHRB investigation: "There was nobody held to account. Betfair are not putting anyone forward. Why can't we question the people who are supposed to have laid the horse? Betfair are not cooperating at all. I have big questions. There hasn't been much of an inquiry either. There have only been two people interviewed in the space of two years."
