Track Biography:

The Mid-Antrim Hunt was formally set up in the 1870’s as a harrier pack, although it was in existence for at least a hundred years before that. It was believed to have had its first official meeting in The Thatch Pub in Broughshane in 1875.

The Mid Antrim point-to-point Course is just outside Moneyglass very close to Toomebridge. Toome or Toomebridge (from Irish: Tuaim, meaning "tumulus"), is a small village and townland on the northwest corner of Lough Neagh in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Moneyglass was at one time home to Malachy McCourt and his family who was the father of Frank McCourt, author of Angela's Ashes, a winner of The Pulitzer Prize, the NBCC Award, The LA Times Award and the Royal Society of Literature Award.
 
Champion National Hunt jockey and 2010 BBC Sports Personality of the Year winner, Tony McCoy, who received an OBE in 2010, was born in Moneyglass.

Another sports star reared in Moneyglass was world famous Rugby Union player Willie John McBride who capped for Ireland on 63 occasions which includes 12 times as Captain.

The Colin Bowe team have really hit top gear with their four-year-old maiden runners in recent weeks, notching up three winners in the division alone last weekend and so his TROOPER THORN will certainly have lots of appeal. He finished a fine third at Dromahane on his debut and has the potential to go two places better in this. Stable mate Lunar Contact also made the placings on debut, with Kayf Legend also not far away on his Loughanmore debut.

OLD BEGINNINGS fared best of the four newcomers that featured in his debut maiden at Dromahane when only finding the more experienced Myretown too good in what looked a decent race. It would no surprise to see him get his head in front here. Cardamon Hill is the obvious danger to him having stepped forward from his Kirkistown debut when second at Loughanmore over the Easter weekend when making a few errors in the closing stages. A cleaner round of jumping will certainly bring him closer, whilst Hills Of Glory is another that cannot be discounted.

JOSIES DYLAN represents the same connections that were successful in a similar adjacent contest at Largy last weekend, and if he could recapture the form of his Nenagh run he could provide them with a similar outcome in what looks a very winnable race. River Box showed a nice bit of improvement in between his opening two efforts and could be the main danger.

STOP THIS TRAIN was sent off at the top of the market at Stowlin last Sunday having put up a big effort in defeat at Castletown-Geoghegan before that, only to lose her rider at the very first fence. She would have to be taken to make amends here. Chatshow Host and Isabella Bee would seem to be her biggest threats.

DIESE DES BIEFFES put up two big performances in the early weeks of the season in races that have subsequently produced multiple winners since. That ensures this is a long-awaited return to action from the grey who has not been seen since and if re-appearing with that force he could certainly pick-up where he had left off. Some Man was an unlucky early casualty at Largy last Saturday and bids to enhance his champion point-to-pointer title claims with a fifth victory, whilst Er Dancer, Fils Spirituel and Vis Ta Loi add further depth to the race.

Preview

The 92-rated hurdler Presenting Cody faired reasonably well on his first start for current connections in a decent Castletown-Geoghegan race last month and this could be an ideal opportunity for him to open his account. Dower Caves and Dunboy Lad are two solid sorts that should have place claims in this.
