Track Biography:

The first Westmeath Foxhounds point-to-point took place in Loughegar in 1875. The Westmeath Foxhounds point to point committee have been holding meetings in Castletown Geoghegan for almost forty years. Prior to that, meetings were held at Mullingar Racecourse at Newbrook and Cullion, now the venue of Mullingar Showgrounds and Mullingar Rugby grounds.

During our Spring fixture we have one of the most prestigious contests run in the point-to-point circuit, the Barbour Cup. It has been the race where many racing stars have returned to point-to-pointing to run in Open Lightweights and have taken part in this historic race.

In addition, many young horses who have won their maiden here, have continued very successful careers on the track.For example previous course winner,  It Takes Time won the Ascot Gold Cup and wasthird in the Stayers Hurdle at the Cheltenham festival aswell as finshing fourth in the English Grand National. Royal Caviar, who won his maiden in 2013, went on to win four times on the track as well as finishing fourth in the 2017 Arkle chase at the Cheltenham festival.

One of the real attractions of point-to-point racing is the opportunity to get up close and personal with furture stars of Irish horse racing in a relaxed and family friendly environment.

We have an extensive car parking area which offers a brilliant view of the whole track. This allows you to bring your picnic in the boot of your vehicle which you can enjoy with your family and friends during the day’s racing.

In our bookmakers ring you can view and bet on any off-course races on the day in both England and Ireland.

 

We have outside caterers who supply a variety of tasty hot foods such as burgers, sausages and chips. There will also be a range of confectionaries on offer all of which are reasonably priced.

Alternatively, why not come along early and enjoy a picnic before the action gets under way or take a break midway through the day to refuel from the boot of your car. Our extensive car park is the perfect location to relish the atmosphere of the races whilst entertaining friends and family.

Our outside caterers sell teas, coffees and soft drinks to keep you warm during your days racing.

There are also three pubs in the nearby village of Castletown-Geoghegan where there is always a great welcome and atmosphere for patrons before and after racing.

You have the opportunity to get a close up of the action when the runners are being saddled and paraded in the parade ring before their race. There is great excitement for racegoers as once you have picked out your favourite horse you can proceed to the bookies to have a little flutter.

Nothing beats the excitement of the closing stages of a race and our track ensures that you have a birdseye view. Our final fence and finishing straight are both fantastic viewing points for both spectators in their cars and spectators on foot.

Castletown-Geoghegans course is only a ten-minute drive from the picturesque Lough Ennell where the hugley popular Lilliput Adventure centre is located. If you would like to make a weekend of your time in the Midlands, Lilliput has something to offer for all of the family.

Preview

Warren Ewing won the four-year-old maiden at this fixture on the opening weekend of the season with the subsequent Grade 2 winner Rock My Way, and the Antrim handler who also introduced Constituition Hill via the pointing sphere, has UNDER COVER in here. He likely sets the standard on what he produced before falling at the last in a red-hot Oldtown event in February. Tom Keating was in the winners enclosure at Loughrea last Sunday and his Dedicated Hero will look to build on his Belclare debut, whilst Oak Grove and Tommy Combats are others for the shortlist.

BALLYFORT had started off his season on a good note when third behind the subsequent Grade 2 winner Rock My Way around here in October, and he bounced right back to that form when second in a big-field Lisronagh maiden in February. He can put his experience to good use here as he had the potentially reopposing Prince Palace some seven lengths behind him on that occasion. Caher Rose Den was a beaten favourite when fourth to the recent impressive bumper victor Tullyhill on his debut and an improved showing will be expected from him following a break.

CAPPAJUNE LADY was only denied by a narrow margin in this race last year and she would be a popular winner if managing to go one place better. She certainly goes into the race in good form as a final-fence blunder looked costly in preventing her from running a big race in open company at Durrow recently. Iron Allen was an auction maiden winner at Corbeagh House and was well beaten last time in Bellharbour, whilst a pair of maidens completing the potential line-up.

Preview

EASY TO FOLLOW was a beaten favourite at Knockanohill recently in what is the only blot on her season thus far as she had posted two very fine efforts earlier in the campaign and is worth a second chance in this. The Colin Bowe pair of Emilys Choice and Eve Moneypenny both have recent placed form and head up the potential dangers alongside Getaway Theatre who was not aided by a number of mistakes on her debut at Belclare. She could definitely take a step forward if sharpening up her jumping.

It is nine years since Ray Nicholas and David Christie last won the historic Barbour Cup together with The Last Derby, and BOLD ENOUGH could see the pair add their names to the coveted trophy once again. The eight-year-old is unbeaten since joining current connections with impressive back-to-back success at Kirkistown leaving him as the one to beat. The 2019 winner Some Are Lucky remains as competitive as ever at the age of 12 as is an obvious danger, and is one of two previous winners of this among the entries, as he could be joined by the 2022 victor The Red Menace. A Rated ran well over the banks in Lingstown and cannot be discounted.

Preview

I See You Now disappointed on his stable debut when beaten 55 lengths in a match race at Portrush last weekend. He has the pick of the form following his initial effort behind the now two-time bumper winner Stellar Story at Castlelands last season but following his latest effort it may be worth siding with the luckless GREYROBIN STAR A final-fence faller on each of his last two outings, he would have gone particularly close last time in Lisronagh and would not be winning out of turn here.
