Track Biography:

Previous track winners to have won at Portrush include one of the most talked about national hunt horses in training at the moment, Finian’s Oscar who won his four-year-old maiden at Portrush in October 2016 before selling for £250,000 at the Cheltenham sale the following month.
The charming Portrush is a holiday destination for many people, boosting the Famous Barry's amusements. Near the Giants Causeway, Dunluce Castle and Bushmills Distillery to name a few places of interest. The seaside town of Portrush is the ideal venue for an event of this nature as there is plenty of accommodation, so why not spend the weekend in the North of Ireland while taking in the point-to-point racing.

This has a very open look to it with SPOT OF BOTHER perhaps bring the strongest piece of form having offered plenty of promise when fourth at Farmacaffley on his debut last month. This course will not present as much of a test and it would be no surprise to see him in the shake-up alongside the twice previously placed Thomas Mor and Of Corse I Can who himself was only beaten seven lengths in a Corbeagh House maiden that has already produced two subsequent maiden winners.

Preview
SOME WOMAN has found just one rival too good on no fewer than three of her five starts to date and whilst she may be becoming expensive to follow, her latest effort in Castlelands is already working out nicely with the a horse that she finished five lengths in front of coming out and winning in Liscarroll last Sunday. This could be her turn to get her head in front. Celebrating Katie is the obvious danger after her debut in Kirkistown and she is sure to step forward from that, whilst Social Distancing and Chatshow Host are two others that should not be discounted.

Preview
VAUCELET bypassed a potential engagement at the Cheltenham Festival last week in a race that his connections were so agonisingly close to winning with Winged Leader. Some compensation could come for them here as he has run well around here in the past. Stable companion Some Man is the obvious alternative if he is the horse David Christie elects to run in this, whilst Nick Lost can enter the mix if bouncing back to some of the promise he had shown earlier in the season.

12st 2lbs | Martin A. Corrigan | R.K. Watson |
Preview
KINALEARTY has posted three solid efforts to date including when holding definite placed prospects at Farmacaffley before he came down at the last. This could well be his best opportunity to date. Parkgate has three placed efforts to his name and should be in contention alongside Caroles Templer.

Faramacaffley maiden winner GUNNERY OFFICER lost little in defeat when finished second at Lingstown on his first step into winners company as the front pair had pulled a distance clear of their rivals. He could well regain the winning thread here. Beyond Redemption returns from a mid-season break and his Damma House conqueror has advertised that form by winning since to leave him as a danger alongside Diegos Way.
