Track Biography:

The North Down point-to-point moved to its current course at Kirkistown in 2006 and have held three meetings each season since then. The course is located towards the eastern side of the Ards Peninsula near the village of Portavogie.  It’s in an area that was used as an airfield during the war and hence is very flat and well drained.

Kirkistown is a very level left handed course run over a circuit just short of a mile. Runners jump two fences close to the spectator’s area and a further three along the back straight.

Our November fixture is normally the final meeting of the autumn calendar in the northern area. Conversely, our February and March fixtures are two of the earliest in the northern spring calendar.

Some of the leading graduates from our point-to-point include Simonsig, Petit Mouchoir & Agus A Vic.

Annaghbeg was only beaten just over five lengths at Loughbrickland last month and would look to have a progressive profile, whilst Coolmeen Park was an expensive store purchase last year and he travelled well for a long way at Portrush before weakening to suggest he might come on for the run. But IN LIMBO is preferred after an eye-catching debut at Tattersalls. He did not enjoy the run of the race on that occasions before staying on to finish a promising third.

After two placed efforts last month, this could be the opportunity for INTERSKY SUNSET to get deservedly get her head in front. Finding Fame is an obvious danger in what would be her third run in as weeks, and she has finished second in each of those two outings this term to ensure that she also comes into the race in good form. Lars Lass is a newcomer to this sphere but has finished in the frame off a mark of 93 over hurdles to suggest she cannot be completely discounted.

Preview

FLASH CONROY is the name that stands out on paper after he had made an eye-catching debut at Tallow back in February when only losing out in the dying strides of a big-field maiden. The horse that finished 20 lengths behind him on that occasion has since won on his hurdling debut to advertise the form, and with the stable operating to a 30 per cent strike rate this term, he looks the one to beat. Zettabyte was well backed ahead of his debut in Broughshane, when he was only denied by a short-head, whilst Ballylinch, Ballydemond, Brave Starlight and Shinnhill are others with chances in a competitive heat.

GLOBAL ASSEMBLY was pitched in the deep end for his stable debut at Necarne last Saturday, making the jump from winning a Belclare maiden to contesting an open. He emerged with a lot of credit, when just two lengths behind the former Grade 1 winner The Storyteller. Wearelongerm, a stablemate of The Storyteller, is the obvious danger, as he skipped a potential engagement in a Hunter Chase at Fairyhouse earlier in the week having won on debut at Tattersalls. Ballymagee looks next best.

This is yet another extremely competitive open, but it is hard to get away from BRAIN POWER after he put up two very big performances in winning at both Moira and Tattersalls already this term. Chriss Dream is 160-rated chaser who could be set for his open debut and he adds particular interest to the race, one that includes the likes of January Jets, Hardline, Le Malin and Faith Loving who are all capable of landing a blow.

CAPTAIN CAL had run well at Loughbrickland before tiring late on and he stepped up from that to chase home Sizing Diamond at Necarne last weekend. This does not look to be a much stronger race and he could get his turn. Drumlee Brexit is an obvious danger on his return alongside Le Mieux who has a couple of previous placed finishes.
