Track Biography:

It is with thanks to William Duffy and the Duffy Family that this wonderful facility has been made available to The Ward Union to host this important meeting on the point-to-point calendar.

Based on the foresight and dedication of such stalwarts as Standish Collen and the Craigie Family back in 1963, together with the technical skills of Clerks of the Course Ted Kelly and Al O’Connell, The Folly became known as a fair but testing challenge for horse and rider.  This high standard is maintained today by the present Clerk of the Course, Paddy Griffin and his Team.

After a break from 1974 The Folly welcomed back The Ward Union in 2012.  In the intervening years various other venues were used but thanks to the generosity of the Duffy Family The Folly has again become the ‘Home’ venue.  This is a worthy tribute to the memory of John A. Duffy and his neighbour and friend Pat Rooney.
The solid foundations laid down by this of yesteryear still stand as values held high by The Ward Union organisation of today.

A track like The Folly gives us all the opportunity to see young hopefuls fight it out for glory and it is likely you can watch the same horses and riders competing at the highest level a year or two later, even at Cheltenham itself.

Colin McKeever saddled Flemenshill to run out an impressive winner of this maiden 12 months ago before being sold for a record breaking price of 480,000 pounds. His Loughanmore Stables have two entries here in Browndodd and Eskylane which are sure to be of interest. The Gigginstown trio are expensive sales purchases who will be expected to put up a bold showing, whilst Wexford handlers Cormac Doyle and Colin Bowe, both saddled winners in the four-year-old division last weekend and seem to have their young horses in good form.

NOFLASHBACK showed positively for a long way on his debut at Turtulla when bumping into the impressive Beakstown in a four-year-old maiden. A big run can be expected from him on his second career outing. Duc Dallier came up against some nice types during the autumn, and if he was able to recapture the form of his debut at Portrush, he would be a factor, so too would be the consistent Shanroe Al C, and Parsonal who posted a career best at Nenagh a fortnight ago.

Recent Tyrella maiden winner, THUNDEROSA, represents the same connections who enjoyed success on this card 12 months ago with Captain CJ. They will have high hopes for their son of Westerner, who defeated a big field when getting off the mark on his first outing for current connections a fortnight ago. The well-bred Sizing Rome will look to return to winning ways here having been beaten at short odds at Oldcastle in the spring. Dungarvan victor, La Cavsa Nostra, cannot be discounted on his first outing in winners company, whilst Manetti and Well Bill both went well last time out and are others for the shortlist.

CALL ME BUBBLES created a very big impression when he made a winning point-to-point debut at Loughanmore. That was back in 2016 and he has not been seen since which is the concern, but if able to recapture that form, he will look to pick-up where he had left off. Cavite Beta is a very consistent performer who will capitalise on any fitness concerns with Call Me Bubbles, and he made a winning reappearance at Dowth Hall in October. Sizing Coal, Quiet Account and Dantes King are other very capable performers in this division.

ROSIE AND MILLIE was running a big race against some more experienced rivals in very testing conditions at Borris House when coming down with two to jump. That was a promising debut performance, and a big run can be expected. Stable companion Rosfoyle was not that far behind Madera Express, a winner at Ballinaboola last Sunday, when making her debut at Moira, whilst of the newcomers, Caravation is a full-sister to the 2009 Irish National winner Niche Market. Any support for her in the market would be worth noting.

Preview

SOME RESPONSE is a horse that has finished placed on three occasions between the flags, as well as in a Downpatrick bumper. If he could put a disappointing display at Kirkistown behind him, he could be of interest in a wide open race. The Secret Mason is a capable sort, but is returning from a long absence on what could be his first start for new connections and so it may be the Colin McKeever pair of Stornaway and Templepoint, who offer the greatest challenge.
