Track Biography:
Since 1945 Ballynoe has been noted for its well-staged and successful point-to-point meetings. The current racecourse in the townlands of Garryanne & Killavorilla has been in use since 1983. 1987 saw the introduction of the Waterford Co-Op Gain Final, now better known as the Gain Mares Final, and has been going from strength to strength ever since.
The 2018 running sees the continuation of the Gain Mares Bonus of €3000 presented to the winning owner by Gain Horsefeeds & Ballynoe Point to Point Committee. An always exciting finale to a thrilling series of mares’ races as any mare, a maiden at the beginning of the season, who places 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th, at any point to point in Ireland qualifies to enter the Gain Mares Final.
2018 also sees the introduction of an €1000 bonus being added to the 5yo & Upwards Mares Maiden, kindly sponsored by the O’Keeffe family in memory of their father, the late James O’Keeffe, one of the original members of Ballynoe Point to Point Committee in 1945.
A good galloping course with an extensive view for the spectators. A right-handed circuit of just over a mile. The Ballynoe fixture typically falls on the first Sunday of April except when that weekend is Easter weekend, and in recent years has generally moved to March 17th due to the congestion in the Cork Waterford Point to Point Circuit.
Previous noted winners on the track include, My Murphy who won his maiden in Ballynoe in 2011, and went on to win the Thyestes Chase in Gowran Park in 2016. Also Carter Mckay won his maiden in 2016, and went on to be favourite for the Champion Bumper in Cheltenham 2017.

Preview
SWEETOOTHTOMMY is going the right way and two decent runs should see him ready to win here. Atlantic Breaker was second at Tallow when running into a decent type so looks a real danger with the anticipated improvement. Nikki Steel is one who could show a good level of improvement form his debut in a smart maiden.

BENNYS GIRL was impressive at The Pigeons last week and if fresh and well from that outing looks the class act here. Scoop It has not run since the Autumn but was second to a gelding on her winners debut so could be one to watch. Simple Steps was very impressive at Nenagh and could be best of the rest.

Preview
DRAWN N DRANK saw off Tullintain at Lemonfield and both have alternative options over the weekend but this does represent strong form. B L Swagger is looking a smart sort at this level who travels well and could be a danger to the selections.

Preview
FLIGHTS OF FANTASY was third at Lemonfield on debut and now looks ready to open her account. Caballo Sin Nombre could well be a danger as she has shown very likeable form on her four outings. Talktotheblonde was a close up fourth last time so could be best of the others.
