Track Biography:

Quakerstown Point-to-Point is run under the auspices of the Co Clare Hunt. The track is based at Quakerstown in Boston, Co Clare and is set against the backdrop of the majestic Burren.

Quakerstown has proved to be an excellent source of young talent in recent years with Cheltenham Festival Grade 1 winner, Champagne Fever starting his career with a win at this meeting in 2011.

Another exciting young talent to come from this meeting was Bacardys who went on to win the Grade 2 bumper at Aintree and the Grade 1 Deloitte Novice Hurdle in Leopardstown in 2017.

The 2016 meeting also saw the exciting Next Destination land the four year old maiden and he is now a multiple Graded winner over hurdles including a Grade 1 at Naas.

Preview

With no fewer than 65 entries for this race which has a real habit of throwing up a smart winner, there will be plenty of eyes on it to see who comes out on top, particularly as there are no shortage of previously placed youngsters. Colin Bowe is responsible for a pair of horses who both have a second-place finish to their name in Person Of Interest and PAUL COLLINS. The latter chased home a very smart individual at Kirkistown which could be the strongest piece of form. Of the others, The Big Clubman and Little Beast may be two to watch out for.

Preview

TAPONTHEGO was staying on strongly at Ballinaboola last month when making his debut, only to come down at the final fence whilst in the process of running a very promising race. That has been backed up by two of the horses that were behind him at the time coming out and winning subsequently, and he should be the one to beat. As The Fella Says was only beaten three lengths at Belclare on his debut, whilst Rockvale, Jarrive De Mee and Jigs Forge are others for the shortlist.

Preview

TAKETWOTOONE failed to back up her career-best at Dromahane over Christmas when re-appearing at Nenagh last month, but she should be worth a second try here. Auntie Maggie made the frame at Ballycahane on her debut and is entitled to have improved from it, whilst the many newcomers entered are sure to play a big role in a race like this.

Preview

WINGED LEADER may have two lengths to find with the potentially re-opposing Lifetime Ambition from their clash at Ballindenisk in December, but he has since re-captured the best of his form, with a wide-margin win over a decent field at Portrush last Saturday. That would give him strong claims to overturn that form. Good Bye Sam was formerly a Hunter Chase winner for Willie Mullins and has since changed stables, whilst the likes of La Feline, Dont Matter Now and De Nordener have all visited the winners enclosure this season.

Preview

TORY HILL has to be considered very unlucky to still remain a maiden, having come out the wrong side of three consecutive photo finishes, including around here in November. He would be a very deserving winner of this. Mister Murphy put up a career-best at Belclare when finishing third behind two younger rivals, whilst Sheephaven Flyer has made the frame in two of his three starts this season and should once again be knocking on the door.

Preview

FOUNTAIN HOUSE has shown improved form since switching stables midway through the season, and he put up a career-best at Punchestown last time to finish third. Representing a stable that has had seven of their last eight runners finish in the placings, he could be the one to side with here. The mare Racing Daisy has finished placed three times this year and this could be one of her better chances, with Baunmore Jet likely next best.
