Track Biography:
The Tynan and Armagh hunt can be traced back as far as 1840, when Sir James Stronge of Tynan Abbey estate started the pack at his own expense calling it the Tynan Harriers. The Tynan Harriers sometimes hunted with Lord Waterford’s Armagh Harriers and from these two the Tynan and Armagh hunt was born in 1895.
The first point-to-point was organised in 1895 and has remained at Farmclaffey since then making it one of the oldest point-to-points on the fixture list.
Over the years, Farmacaffley point-to-point has produced many top national hunt stars such as 2002 Grand National winning Bindaree and Cheltenham Gold Cup runner-up Truckers Tavern.

Preview
KERRIB CASTLE looks banker material here as he won a competitive winners race last time and has some decent Hunter Chase form to call on also. Our La Scala Diva would be notable on a return to his track form and Finea has claims on his best but was disappointing recently. Spin Box has run well in this race in the past.

CLOUGHERNAGH BOY ran well on a tough circuit at Ballindenisk when second to Benzel so should be able to cope with this course making him an appealing option. Cant Pay Wont Pay and Mister to Mister have recent notable form to consider also. Sizing Titanium was well supported before falling four out at Nenagh and must be respected.

There is very little to separate BALLYBRACK DANCER, Emmas Rainbow and Wee Dreamer who were all close together in a Tyrella maiden. Ballybrack Dancer came out on top on that occasion and may be best suited by this course to confirm the form of that run.

CARSONSTOWN BOY seems to be back to top form following his success at Thurles last time and may have the measure of The Last Derby in what looks a fascinating contest. Davy From Milan is another significant contender here while any return of Slippers Percy would have to be noted also.

Preview
WALDEN ran well in a Hunter Chase last time and has some very decent form at this level and has course experience also. It all points positively towards a big run from this fellow here. His Fix won his maiden last Sunday at Punchestown but looks capable of improvement. There is plenty of depth to this contest One Cool Clarkson has course form and has the measure of Drum Bay on Loughanmore form. Kilcullen Article and Bally Beaufort have decent form and Crude was third last time at Nenagh.

LORD RUDI has a chance here having shown form on the track and finishing a promising fourth last time. He could have the measure of Twisted Psychlogy who ran well last time at Nenagh having made much of the running last time and should progress for the run.
