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.

Preview
There is a big entry of 55 for this opening contest, and there is no shortage of potential contenders for this beginning with PAUL COLLINS who showed plenty of promise in a decent Kirkistown contest on debut behind what looked like a smart prospect. Lon Chaney is the biggest threat, as he held the slight edge before exiting at Castlelands last month on his own debut, whilst another final-fence casualty, Game On, alongside Cher Monsieur and Nelson County, are others to note.

BALLYBOW was only denied by a neck by a more experienced rival when finishing a close second in testing conditions at Portrush for his debut last month. He is entitled to have taken a step forward from it, and it would be no surprise to see him go one better here. Dixie Mafia has proven expensive to follow in unplaced maidens of late, but his Comea effort in February showed he has definite ability to bring him into contention, whilst Colin Bowe has no shortage of dangers with the likes of Achille Des Rocs, Devilsinthedetail and Invicta Du Berlais, whilst Canunclecani is another to consider.

11st 11lbs | Teresa Flood | Kildare (F) Peter J. Flood |
Preview
KNOCKIEL SYNGE came up second best in this race last year but he has since acquitted himself well into open company over the banks with good efforts at Knockanard and Lingstown this term to leave him as the one to beat and give Peter Flood a third win in this race from the last four renewals. Fire Force was supported ahead of her latest effort at Tinahely, and whilst it was not quite up to the same level as her previous run at that Wicklow venue, she ranks as the main danger, ahead of fellow maiden Ar Aghaidh.

Preview
DAWN MISS was right on terms when departing three-out on her debut at Monksgrange recently, and she could make amends here to continue the good form of the Sean Doyle stable of late. Deravarra Rose had finished second at Belclare before running in a point-to-point bumper at Cork last time, she is the chief danger of those with form, ahead of Fire Force and Ar Aghaidh, who both have other options on this card in the adjacent hunt winners race.

WINGED LEADER has been mopping up races in recent weeks, and it could be hard to side against him, adding his fifth of the campaign in this if he was to show up in the same form that we have seen him in in recent weeks. De Nordener has over six lengths to find with the selection from their recent meeting at Quakerstown, whilst Au Fleuron, Dont Matter Now, and The Bosses Oscar, a winner here in October, have all enjoyed success this season and add plenty of depth to the race.

Preview
MISTER MURPHY has really turned a corner of late and after posting two very consistent efforts at Belclare and Quakerstown last month, this could be a nice opportunity for him to gain a deserved breakthrough. Cresthill ran one of his better races last time, albeit in drier conditions, whilst Primitic is another that put his best foot forward on his latest effort and so should come into this in good form.
