Track Biography:

East Down Foxhounds Point-to-Point course at Tyrella is situated at the foot of the picturesque Mourne Mountains made famous by the Percy French song.

With the 2018 Spring season, East Down will have been racing at Tyrella for fifty four years. Two meetings are held each Spring, in January and March.

Normally the first meeting of the Spring calendar in the Northern Region, Tyrella is a right handed undulating track where, given it’s close proximity to the sea and sandy soil is well drained and more often than not, produces good going.

This video from @NotFromHereStories gives you a snapshot of the picture-postcard setting that Tyrella point-to-point takes place in.

Preview

PALMERS HILL was well-fancied ahead of his debut at Oldtown when finishing third behind Flemnshill, the horse who set a record price for a point-to-pointer when being bought by Alan Potts at Cheltenham subsequently. A big run has to be expected from the Denis Murphy-trained Gold Well gelding following that promising debut. Warren Ewing has his stable in flying form and whichever of his two representatives, Burrows Edge and Presented Well, line-up here, a big run can be expected.

Preview

BANG BANG ROSIE was the subject of strong market support ahead of debut at Kirkistown at recently, and she appeared to be travelling well, when falling with three to jump. The consistent Little Millie has finished third in two very competitive mares races this season. With strong course form to her name, having finished behind Loveherandleaveher in January, she is a clear danger. Outta The West offered plenty of encouragement with her third-placed debut performance at Loughbrickland and she is a likely danger in this big field contest.

The well-bred SIZING ROME represents the in-form Jim Dreaper yard, and he could be a tough sort to oppose if living-up to his pedigree. What Another Year was running a big race on debut before falling at the final fence and he bring the strongest form into the race. Fellow Wexford raider U No Like finished second on debut at Belharbour, whilst Lovey Schtuff took a notable step forward at Lingstown in December when chasing home the impressive Minellafordollars in a big field four-year-old maiden. Admittedly, well-held by the winner on that occasion, it was promising nonetheless.

AS THE CROW FLIES will look to bring up a four-timer here following three successive victories, which also included a course and distance success at this venue at the end of January where he had the measure of the potentially re-opposing Battle Anthem. He is the clear form selection and on that basis the one to beat here. Teds Island was all out to prevail at Ballinaboola last month, and as a fellow three-time winner, he is deserving of respect. Meanwhile, Cant Pay Wont Pay is a thoroughly consistent performer who will not be far away.

The Antartique gelding was only beaten by three lengths in a Sligo maiden hurdle last Summer and it will be interesting to see how he fares here on his pointing debut. Necarne maiden winner The Trigger also finished placed under rules and is a contender. News For Pascal won this race in 2014 and was second in last years renewal, whilst Canitbe has his first start for Sean McParlan having run on the track for John Monroe.
