Track Biography:

Rathcannon point-to-point has played host to many Hunts over the years and more recently to the Limerick Foxhounds & the Limerick Foxhounds Bruff point-to-point committee.

Many talented riders and horses have graduated from the Limerick Foxhounds point-to-point both when racing on the past venues and presently at Rathcannon.

The track itself is a left-handed course and has been in operation since 2008.

Our race meeting is situated just 40 minutes from Limerick city and just half an hour from the scenic town of Adare, making a trip to Rathcannon point-to-point part of a perfect Family Sunday.

WAR CORRESPONDANT looked set to win at Dungarvan before falling at the last and the half brother to Gold Cup winner War Of Attrition should finally rid his maiden tag here. Why Surrender was close up when falling at Kilfeacle and looks best of the rest. Ballyheigh and Dromnea can be each way value.

A fascinating contest where wide margin Dromahane winner Sraid Padraig and Ruapehu look above average and will be suited by this course. Tallow Fair and Giveabobback have been running well at Open level but all are overlooked for GOLD DUCAT who was close up behind Boxer Georg at Clonmel last time which is top notch Hunter Chase form.
