Track Biography:

Ballindenisk point-to-point has a long history of holding point-to-points, dating back over a hundred years. The original point-to-point races were held over a banks course in the 1890’s.

The course is situated on the farm of Robert Fell and is also used for eventing as well as having hosted European and World Championships. Set in a rural area near Watergrasshill the course is made up of volunteer racing enthusiasts which includes former jockey/trainer and Clerk of the course John O’Callaghan.

Over the years Ballindenisk has produced many top class horses that have gone on to sell for large amounts of money in the UK sales. These include Conna Castle, Native Jack, Artic Copper and Awbeg Prince.

Preview

MODERN DAY HERO led the field into the home straight on his debut at Quakerstown in the spring, and although giving way off the home bend, the experience should stand to him, so it would be no surprise to see him take a step forward in this. Impact Sub disappointed at that Co. Clare venue earlier in the month, although he had finished second on debut in Tinahely which could bring him into the calculations, whilst his stablemate Barbar Esko was not beaten all that far at Umma House.

Preview

Ian McCarthy has a 100 per cent strike rate between the flags this season, with three winners from three runners, and PRAGIMS DU BRIZAIS could continue his winning run. He finished fourth at Loughanmore in the spring, and, notably, the first two horses home in that race have both since won bumpers to advertise the form. The JP McManus pair of Keep On Dreaming and Pen To Paper have both finished placed under rules, however, it could well be that Ya Will Ya is the biggest threat, after he chased home a recent hurdle winner when making his debut at Lingstown in the spring.

ITS ON THE LINE is the big name in this, with the eight-year-old potentially set to have his first outing since winning the Champion Hunter Chase at the Punchestown Festival for the third year in a row. He has previously been beaten at this venue, which could give his rivals some hope, and they are likely headed by Panda Boy. The 140-rated chaser has twice finished placed in the Paddy Power Chase, and is an interesting recruit to this division. Of those with recent form, Jetoile, Bartlemy Boy and Dancing On My Own are respected.

LUCKY VALLEY stands out as the horse to beat for this after she finished a very encouraging second on her first completed start at Dromahane recently. Positive Mindset, Leading Rose, Shake The Bag and Faha Moonstone are all closely tied on their latest outing in Rathcannon, whilst Nelly O and the track placed hurdler Twoplustwo Equals add further depth to a competitive heat.

QUEEN OF THE GALES and Hero In The Sky were no match for The Great Unknown at Boulta last weekend, but they could be the leading contenders for this, with the Garrett Ahern-trained five-year-old taken to confirm the three-and-a-half-length margin which had separated them eight days ago. Honey Come Quick and Arklow are two last-time-out maiden winners that are respected.

Preview

TWOPLUSTWO EQUALS ran well off a mark of 87 in a Punchestown handicap on her penultimate start, and she should be able to take advantage of a drop in grade for this. Shell Be Kept had her potentially reopposing stablemate Karedas De Cougny behind her when finishing placed in a similar race at Boulta last weekend, and she should be in the shake-up once again.
