Track Biography:
The North Kilkenny Foxhounds date back to 1931 with the first running of their point-to-point in the late 1940's.
The current racecourse at Parksgrove in Ballyragget has been in use since 1989, returning from Gowran Park to the open country, as had been in its formative years.
The right-handed course is practically level throughout making it a great viewing track and a favoured track amongst handlers that always has a large number of entries.
Previous track winners to have won at Ballyragget include former Grade One winner Herecomesthetruth, a maiden winner here in 2007, and former Grade Two winning Luska Lad won the open 2015.

OLD RASCALS blotted his record when he ran out at Borris House last Friday when fancied to run well having finished second on his debut at Cragmore in testing conditions in February. The Ask gelding should be given a second chance here to win a race which has produced Neon Wolf and Martello Tower in recent years. Exit Eleven and Dancing Dave both showed some encouragement on their respective debuts, whilst the market will give a good guide as to what can be expected from the newcomers.

ROSIE AND MILLIE was turned over at short odds last Sunday at Lingstown, and she will look to gain quick compensation here, having offered plenty of promise at both Borris House and Kildorrery already this season. Whispering Hope disappointed at Ballinaboola on her latest outing, but if she was to recapture her run against geldings at Knockinroe in the Autumn, she would be a danger, as she got within five-lengths of Buckie Cullen, a horse that won his winners race by a distance last month. Bellharbour runner-up Rollercoster and perennial third Its All A Lark are others that can go close.

NEWLANDS CROSS has been a thoroughly consistent performer to date, and he enters what is probably his best opportunity for a maiden success to date, fresh from a promising third at Lingstown last Sunday. Stable companion Windy Bottom has placed form from Borris to her name, track recruit Simply Gooch was third in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse back in 2016 and will look to give his new trainer Aidan Fitzgerald back-to-back successes in this race, whilst Where Now could be a danger with a clear round of jumping.

Longhouse Music is a mare that has been running particularly well this season, and it would not be a big surprise to see her put up a bold show on her first outing in open company, whilst Drawn N Drank is a stout stayer who will be doing his best work late on.

PUTHIMINYOURPOCKET was the hard luck story of the Tallow maiden that he made his debut in, as he was badly hampered with two to jump, before powering home late, and only went down by a narrow margin. He looks the obvious selection for this. Sommerton ran his best race for a good while to finish third at Punchestown, whilst Where Now is a horse who has shown some promise, but he has failed to complete his last three starts which he will need to overcome.
