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.

AN MHI holds plenty of entries but if appearing here he would be hard to oppose. He was sent off as the favourite for a red-hot maiden at Tattersalls in November when finishing fourth behind three horses who each sold for over 300,000 pounds each in the sales ring subsequently. Wide To West finished strongly at Comea recently and should be suited by the stronger test that this track presents, whilst Plain Or Battered is entitled to have improved following his encouraging debut and he represents a stable that were among the winners last weekend.

Everything Now had the measure of Garm Colombe at Bellharbour and will be expected to confirm those placings here.

The awaited return of GUNNERY OFFICER adds particular strength to this race as he looked booked for third at Cork last year when falling at the final fence. With horses that would have finished directly in front and behind of him having since won maidens to frank the form, he looks hard to oppose on his return. Parkgate has also not been seen in competitive action recently, which may leave Kinalearty as the biggest danger.
