Track Biography:

The South Westmeath Hunt have a long history of holding a point-to-point meeting spanning over 100-years as far back as the early 1900’s. The point-to-point was originally held in Kilkenny West before being moved to its current location at Listisson, The Pigeons in 1978.

With its central location in the heart of Ireland, The Pigeons point-to-point is one of the most accessible tracks in Ireland with excellent road links from all corners of the country right up to the entrance gate. The course itself is a mile long per lap and regarded as one of the real staying tracks on the fixture list.

As a real mainstay of the Irish point-to-point fixture list for many decades, The Pigeons has been lucky enough to have played host to many future racing stars at an early point of their career, with the likes of Wicked Crack, Killeaney, Monsieur Monet and Champers On Ice all winners at our point-to-point.

In recent times, Champers On Ice was sold for no less than £205,000 at a public auction which took place at the Cheltenham Festival just a week after winning as a young horse here at The Pigeons and he has since gone on to achieve Graded success for his new connections. This highlights the possibility of you being able to witness the next future star of the sport by coming racing with us.

How To Get There

By Road

Take the N4 out of Dublin, take the N6 from Kinnegad, in Athlone take the N55 North towards Ballymahon and watch for a sign for the course on the right hand side. The Pigeons is located 130km west of Dublin and 100km east of Galway.

By Air

Dublin Airport is just an 85-minute drive from The Pigeons.

Mullaghmore Glens, Rimmy Creek and Ziggie are all capable of a big run based on recent placed efforts while Caledon Craic ran well in a confined maiden last weekend.

BACKSTAGE is a course winner but does have a Tinahely option. Wherever he turns up he cannot be opposed. In his absence this looks competitive. Merchant Royal and Universal Truth are talented but on retrieval missions here so the possible one to opt for here is Onefortheroadmac if the selection does not start.

Preview

KILENE BROOK is unexposed at this level and seems to be going the right way so it could pay to follow him here. Bolin Island was third at Nenagh last time so can be considered here Mr Dickens has snippets of form to recommend including third in a handicap hurdle off a mark of 88 which would see him involved.
