Track Biography:
The Pigeon Hill Committee and the Carrigtwohill Committee amalgamated in 1958 to form the Pigeon Hill & Carrigtwohill point-to-point Committee.
They have organised a Point-to-Point in the Carrigtwohill area ever since. 2018 is the 60th Anniversary of this race meeting.
Traditionally race day has been an occasion when the people of the parish came out in large numbers to enjoy a day of fun and activity.
Full details of all our special offers are on the Pigeon Hill and Carrigtwohill Point to Point Facebook Page.
The excellent condition and quality of the Ballyvodock track historically has attracted a large number of entries from owners and trainers from all over Ireland.

CONQUER GOLD narrowly missed out behind Yes I Did in a useful looking maiden at Ballinaboola last time. Answer Ur Phone narrowly missed out at Dungarvan last time and warrants respect while Goodthynemilan who was third on debut could also be one to note.

LEADING THE LIFE was a close second at Aghabullogue last time and had Doctor Braveheart behind so that form could be the best to side with here. Golden Crisp was a close third at Templenacarriga while Forget And Forgive has notable track form to consider here also.

CLONEEN CHOICE ran well on his debut and is open to improvement here although if Consharon Boy chooses this option rather than the opening race it would be a close call between them. Hawkers Son was disappointing last time but has a chance on best form

BOTHERMENOT ran into a decent mare at Killeagh and still has not been out of the first two so may be the narrow winner ahead of Bennys Girl who was close up second at Borris last time. Miss Speedy is solid in this sort of races and looks next best.

Preview
ICONIC IMAGE was second on his last two starts most recently at Dromahane and may have the measure of Talk Of The South who was unlucky last time. Vanguard deserves a reward for his consistency while Rocknrolldixie was very much involved before falling at the last recently. Mystical Knight and The Black Dog also have chances here.
