Track Biography:
Set amongst the picturesque Blackstairs Mountains, our race track is located close to the parade ring, bookies, final fence and the finish line making it extremely assessable for all of the family to view the day’s action.
Our point-to-point is located on the grounds of the beautiful Borris House which is one of the few intact living Irish estates that can trace its history back to Brehon times, and the royal ruling families of ancient Ireland. The estate is the family home of the 16th generation of McMorrough Kavanagh’s and still contains the majority of its original furniture, paintings, documentary archives and other historic family artefacts.
Borris House is a popular wedding venue with a range of beautiful accommodation offers to choose from as well as providing tours of the estate.

Lakefield Flyer fared best of the three horses in this that have previous experience to their names when third at Bellharbour. He was the subject of market support on that occasion and has to be respected with that initial effort sure to stand to him here, although there are a large number of newcomers in this for what is a race that typically produces some smart individuals.

GIOVINCO was holding every chance when he came acropper at the final fence in Knockanard last month and this progressive individual could be the one to side with here ahead of Old Folk Tale who finished third in an auction maiden in the autumn and is having his first run since. Transmission, Wide To West and Benassi are others to have already shown promise that cannot be discounted.

MANGAN SUE contested two decent maidens at Ballinaboola and Ballycrystal last month, finishing third in both and so it would be no surprise if she was to step forward and get her head in front here. Some Woman is another that has been knocking on the door of late, whilst Trim To Milan switches to the point sphere for her first start over obstacles following three runs in bumpers last summer including a second at Ballinrobe on debut and has to be respected.

Preview
It was hard not to be impressed at just how easily BEYONDAPPROACH dismissed a wide-margin maiden winner when running out an 18-length winner in Kirkistown last month and she sets a strong standard here. Camillas Choice has course form here having won her maiden at the first time of asking back in December to ensure she is an obvious threat alongside Time To Rocco who won well at Tinahely just last Sunday.

DROP HIM IN chased home Irish Blaze a recent maiden hurdle winner for Gordon Elliott when third at Knockmullen House on his penultimate start and he looked set to improve on that when likely booked for second before coming down at the final fence in Corbeagh House. Butcher Barry also came acropper at the final obstacle when last seen, that was in Tyrella last month when sure to have gone close which has to bring him into the reckoning for this alongside Texas Gold fresh from his return run in Tinahely last week.

MOONLIGHT SYMPHONY is a 94-rated hurdler who has placed track form to her name and that may give him the edge in this for what unusually for an adjacent maiden features a significant number of newcomers. Of the others with form, Any Time comes here in form having finishing second at Tyrella, whilst Baldurs Gate finished third at Tattersalls on debut to the mare Rose Of Coolbally who has since franked the form by winning a number of races subsequently.
