Track Biography:
The Tynan and Armagh hunt can be traced back as far as 1840, when Sir James Stronge of Tynan Abbey estate started the pack at his own expense calling it the Tynan Harriers. The Tynan Harriers sometimes hunted with Lord Waterford’s Armagh Harriers and from these two the Tynan and Armagh hunt was born in 1895.
The first point-to-point was organised in 1895 and has remained at Farmclaffey since then making it one of the oldest point-to-points on the fixture list.
Over the years, Farmacaffley point-to-point has produced many top national hunt stars such as 2002 Grand National winning Bindaree and Cheltenham Gold Cup runner-up Truckers Tavern.

ILLUSION OF TIME was second to Mr Bolt last time and comes here in good form so should take all the beating. Granduer Cappy has plenty of ability but must overcome a very long layoff to score here.

ARTISTE DU GOUET was second to a very exciting sort at Oldtown last time and had One Tick behind so he is the one to side with here as he will come on for that run. Lets Keepit simple has been running well and is never too far away and looks another to consider here.

Preview
ZEINAB is returning from an absence but looked a smart sort when second at Loughbrickland on her most recent start. Escape Footwear ran well at Kirkistown when second on debut but will face a different test here. Kinnacally was not beaten far last time so can expect to go close here also while JJ Milan is another with placed form coming here who should be competitive.

Preview
THE HARD HAT was not beaten far by Muirhead at Tyrella and this course will see him even more effective. He had Sole Witness ahead of him on that occasion but may well turn the form now. Send For Paddy is now a veteran but finished last season in good form and can run well fresh. Current Exchange could be each way value having been second last time also.

ROSSANWEE was second at Oldtown last time and comes here in good form so could be the one who will take all the beating. Under The Red Sky won last week so comes here in top form while Lottodo and Harbour Pirate are likely each way options.

Preview
FREDDIES PORTRAIT was second to Vanguard at Tallow before meeting an exciting sort at Kirkistown last time and although he has a few entries could be one to follow here. Merrydown Black was behind on that occasion so may have to settle for second here. Kinley could be the one to cause an upset on his return to action.
