Jamie Codd, who is the second winning-most point-to-point rider in the history of the sport became the first modern day rider to ride all six winners on the one card at Tinahely in October 2011.

Previous track winners to have won at Tinahely include former Grade One winner Fundamentalist and Cheltenham Gold Cup runner-up On His Own.

Tinahely is situated in the heart of the Wicklow countryside, the garden of Ireland. Located just an hour and half from the bustle of Dublin city, Tinahely is a pretty village in south west Wicklow that offers a variety of walking opportunities and a gateway to the beautiful Irish landscape.

Rob James has started the new season in good form as both a handler and rider, and he could add to his tally on both fronts in this courtesy of CONMAN JOHN. He made a promising debut when third at Dawstown in May and will hold leading prospects here. Fukkatsu Enki brings more recent form, having finished a close fourth in a slowly-run Loughrea maiden, which came on the same weekend that King Du Brivet finished third behind an impressive winner at Portrush. He could prove to be the biggest threat.

FIDDLEDEE returned with a career-best performance at Portrush earlier this month, and would look like the easier of the potential engagements that she this weekend. Her stablemate Geordie Girl also has recent form to her name, having finished third at Castletown-Geoghegan, to give their handler Colin Bowe plenty of options. Of the others, the track placed Kilrush Lady disappointed on her first start in this sphere, whilst Emily Love represents a stable with a good strike rate around here.

If ASHTOWN PARK can be forgiven for a disappointing effort at Ballindenisk most recently, he could be the one to side with following his debut second at Curraghmore in April. The more experienced Wild Nephin signed off last season with a good run at Inchydoney, whilst Nice To See You and Revolut Ned are others with previous place form.

BETWEEN WATERS is back with Sean Doyle, for whom she had made a very impressive start to her career with an eight-length debut success in Lisronagh. She was unable to open her account in four starts under rules for Nicky Henderson, but could still be the one to side with here. Bayonetta won well at Portrush, and may be the pick of the recent maiden winners, whilst stable debutante Iorens was placed three times on the track for Dan Skelton.

However Born By The Sea could have their measure. He was only beaten by ten lengths in the 2023 Aintree Grand National and made a promising debut in this sphere at Umma House last week.

JOSIES DYLAN has already run twice this month, and whilst he has not yet matched the peak of his performances last season, he is sure to be in the shake-up once again. Longhouse Star was well beaten at Loughrea last time, but his 2023 form would see him as a leading player alongside the locally-trained Jollie Cosmos.
