The track is owned by the Hill family of Dawn Run fame is one of the finest in the South East of Ireland and is well supported as a schooling venue and as a point to point fixture.

Grade 1 winner, Samcro won his point-to-point maiden at Monksgrange in 2016 for local handler Colin Bowe.

A day out at Monksgrange point-to-point is a perfect day in the Irish countryside for all the family.

Preview

The Donnchadh Doyle-trained BLACK GERRY was only beaten by a length-and-a-half in the latest of these auction races to have been run at Dromahane earlier this month. That should leave him as the one to beat in a race which is confined to horses that were bought for E25,000 or less at the sales as a three-year-old. Punchers Path brings form from the second auction race at Durrow, whilst Frisco Bay was fourth in that same race.

ZIHUATANEJO has changed ownership since running a very promising race on debut to finished second to Champagne Platinum in a four-year-old maiden at Quakerstown. His conqueror from that race has remained unbeaten and holds an entry for a Grade 1 contest at Punchestown next week, leaving Zihuatanejo as the clear horse to beat. Usurper could be his main danger having finished second Oldcastle just last Sunday. Eurowork has been progressing all the time and finished second at Castletown-Geoghegan earlier in the month, whilst Ask Politely would have to be feared on his debut run from Ballyarthur, however he must put a disappointing display at Portrush behind him most recently.

LOUGH DERG LYRIC, Royal Drumlee and Oscar Academy are all chasing hat-tricks here, with the latter having gained a deserved maiden success around here last month. However preference is given to Lough Derg Lyric as the form of his latest victory at Ballyragget is already working out well and he is a horse that is on the crest of a wave. Go Whatever remains a maiden but has been running some promising race, whilst Fort Worth Texas finished a game second in the GAIN Final at Ballynoe recently and is a three-time winner in her own right already.

Preview

Colin Bowe acquired OSCAR BONNIE for just 4,000 pounds at the Ascot sale last month and whilst the Oscar mare was unable to figure in the point-to-point bumper at Gowran, the form of her runs at Ballindenisk and Nenagh is working out well, to suggest she could make a winning debut for his yard here. Moylass bumped into a smart sort at Loughbrickland and looks a big danger, whilst final-fence faller Fox Creek, Bella Ballerina and Ulterior Motives ensure that this could be a very competitive renewal.

No horse has been able to get in front of KRUZHLININ in his eight outings between the flags this season, and he look to quickly follow up his wide-margin success at Oldcastle last Sunday, with his ninth victory of the campaign here. Some Are Lucky is a very honest horse who has himself won six races, whilst Marinero came up against the Cheltenham Foxhunters-fourth Road To Rome in two hunter chases at Ludlow earlier in the campaign. Elsewhere, there was only three quarters of a length separating Oscar Contender and Arctic Skipper when they met at Tallow in February.

Preview

GOLDZAR let down his supporters when he pulled up at Tinahely back in February having been sent off as the favourite following a very promising second to the now two-time winner Lough Derg Lyric at Kirkistown. A return to form, should see him as the clear horse to beat. The Secret Mason pulled up on his seasonal re-appearance at Castletown-Geoghegan but should improve for the run, whilst Longtide is back from a spell under rules and had offered promise at the beginning of his career.
