Track Biography:
The firsts set of National Hunt Committee rules were published in 1889 and Kilkenny Hunt with its long illustrious history of holding point-to-point meets can trace its first meeting back to then. Point-to-point meetings were held under the master ship of Ikey Bell at Lacken, near Bonnettstown in 1909 and from 1914 meetings were at Bishopslough.
Thereafter meetings continued to circulate around the country, 1926 in Ballyfacey, 1927 Rahelty, 1948 Stonecarthy, 1949-1959 Wollengrange, Gowran 1960-1989. From there the point-to-point moved to Brambelstown, Kilbline, Grennan and then to its current location in Damma House.
We hold two meetings during the season, one in November and one in May. Our tracks over the years have seen many winners go on to establish themselves amongst the elite of the racing world, dual Welsh National winner Mountainous and Tranquil Sea to name but a few.

KOOL KID came through testing conditions to go close at Peppards Castle recently, and although likely to face different conditions here, he sets the standard. Conman John also brings placed form into this, having finished third on debut at Dawstown, and he is sure to come on for that run, with Daydream Nation bringing a similar profile, whilst the Dromahane fourth Riskaway is another for the shortlist.

This has a very open look to it, so it may be worth siding with COFFEE AT ELVEN. The well-related Malinas gelding was still going well in front when coming down four-out on his debut at Tattersalls in the spring. The Pat Doyle pair of City Slippers and Dixie Mafia have both made the frame in the past, but need to bounce back to their best form following their latest efforts.

Colin Bowe has enjoyed a successful opening month to the new season, and his team will be hoping that FIDDLEDEE can continue that as she comes here following a career-best effort at Portrush most recently. Her stablemate Geordie Girl made an early departure at Tinahely last Sunday, but was placed at Castletown-Geoghegan, whilst Kilrush Lady could also make a quick return to action, and she has gone close over hurdles.

JIM THE WOLF has certainly started the season strongly winning his opening two races at both Toomebridge and Loughanmore, with his latest success coming by a notable 13 lengths. He could bring up the hat-trick here. Willitgoahead is another who seems to have returned as an improved performer, and he won impressively at Castletown-Geoghegan, whilst Fountain House has won each of his last two starts in this sphere.

WONDERWALL made an impressive start to life in this sphere when he recorded what looked quite a comfortable success at Loughrea last month. The form has already received a number boosts, with the two horses that chased him home, Er Dancer and Ramillies, both winning themselves in recent weeks. He sets a strong standard. Gorthill was no match for Winged Leader at Portrush on his return but is capable of getting involved in the shake-up here alongside Pat Coyne, who claimed a notable scalp at Curraghmore just last Saturday.

Preview
GO FRANKIE made a positive return back to point-to-point action at Umma House recently when finishing second, and now with four placed finishes on his CV, he should gain a deserved first success here. Keeptheoldmanout only missed out on a maiden success at Dromahane in the spring, and if he could recapture that he certainly would not be too far away alongside Longhouse Star.
