Track Biography:
East Down Foxhounds Point-to-Point course at Tyrella is situated at the foot of the picturesque Mourne Mountains made famous by the Percy French song.
With the 2018 Spring season, East Down will have been racing at Tyrella for fifty four years. Two meetings are held each Spring, in January and March.
Normally the first meeting of the Spring calendar in the Northern Region, Tyrella is a right handed undulating track where, given it’s close proximity to the sea and sandy soil is well drained and more often than not, produces good going.
This video from @NotFromHereStories gives you a snapshot of the picture-postcard setting that Tyrella point-to-point takes place in.

Access for spectators is directly from the road into the car park which is adjacent to the start/finish straight. Visibility is excellent and the whole course can be seen from everywhere.
This allows racegoers to get up close to the action, often from the comfort of their car, should they wish to bring their own picnic for the family.
We have bookmakers on site and some will also show and take bets on track racing in both Ireland and England.
Our outside catering vendor has a variety of catering options from tasty hot lunches to sandwiches and confectionary.
Race goers can purchase teas, coffees and soft drinks from our outside catering outlet.
A day at Tyrella point-to-point races is the ideal day out for all the family in the heart of the Mourne Country.
One of the real treats of racing at Tyrella, is just how close racegoers can get to the action.
Watch the horses being saddled up by their trainers before making your way to the parade ring where the horses, jockeys and connections gather to discuss their pre-race tactics.
