Track Biography:

Set amongst the picturesque Blackstairs Mountains, our race track is located close to the parade ring, bookies, final fence and the finish line making it extremely assessable for all of the family to view the day’s action.

Our point-to-point is located on the grounds of the beautiful Borris House which is one of the few intact living Irish estates that can trace its history back to Brehon times, and the royal ruling families of ancient Ireland. The estate is the family home of the 16th generation of McMorrough Kavanagh’s and still contains the majority of its original furniture, paintings, documentary archives and other historic family artefacts.

Borris House is a popular wedding venue with a range of beautiful accommodation offers to choose from as well as providing tours of the estate.

Preview

MARIBETH chased home a subsequent 170,000stg seller at Curraghmore on her debut before being all-out-luck in some bumper cars along the back straight at Turtulla. She should be able to get compensation here, potentially at the expense of Isleofview who took on the boys for her debut in an auction maiden at Peppards Castle. She was only beaten by two lengths on that occasion and the race did produce a winner last weekend. Nashville Notions and Peincesse Milania are likely next best.

Preview

Luke Murphy saddled a winner in this age group at Moig South last weekend, and he could potentially repeat the feat here with WORKING CLASS HERO. He certainly outran his starting price on debut at Dromahane, when only giving way in the closing stages having set a strong gallop. Golan Loop represents connections more associated with success on the flat, but he went close at Stradbally on debut and she be in the shake-up after the summer break, whilst Catchintsavo, Crossgales King, Shining Marble and Ballyredinkingston are others with form.

Ian McCarthy looks to have a strong hand in this with his ANNACASSAR potentially the one to side with. She had a couple of subsequent winners behind her when finishing second around here in March before failing to finish at Ballyknock in very testing ground, which can be forgiven. Her stablemate Beckley Love finished second at Loughrea in October and is the obvious alternative if both were to line-up, whilst Geordie Girl and the long-absent Hay Baby are two horses that have also got among the placings in the past.

Preview

This is a fairly open-looking race and it could be the opportunity for REVOLUT NED to gain a deserved success following two consecutive second-placed finishes this season. Be Positive had two subsequent maiden winners behind him when finishing second at Curaghmore last year, and whilst he did disappoint on his initial outing for current connections, he would have to be feared if bouncing back, whilst Vicomte Le Brave finished second in a small field race at Kirkistown and could also get involved.

Preview

PRIORY PARK has thrived since switching to this sphere winning three races on the bounce, including a comfortable defeat of the potentially re-opposing Ramillies at Turtulla a fortnight ago. He will be expected to confirm that form once again. Gorthill went close at Kirkistown recently, bouncing back from a below-par effort at Damma House and would rank as a big danger if reproducing that. Er Dancer and Born By The Sea are others that are respected having been in good form of late.

Preview

KINGS COWBOY was only denied by a length at Tinahely recently on his first start since joining the reigning champion handler and he will be fancied to go one better in this. Our Girl Sal is another to have recently changed stables, and she was sent off as the favourite at Turtulla only to fall three-out. Blueys Unicorse, and others with claims The Risky Miskies but it could be the six-time track placed Sixhandsinmypocket who could be the biggest threat if fit for his first run since New Years day.
