Track Biography:

The first race meeting to take place at Bellharbour was in 1817, when the Burren races were held at the strand at Munnia, organised by Bindon Scott and Burton Bindon who also acted as stewards.

Nowadays the races in their current format take place on the first Sunday of February. The track is situated between the wild Atlantic and the majestic Burren and this makes the point-to-point in Bellharbour one of the most picturesque meetings in Ireland.

Bellharbour has proved to be an excellent source of young talent in recent years.
Dlauro, now with Joseph O’Brien won his maiden here two years ago and Gordon Elliott’s Ball D’Arc was a winner at Bellharbour in 2015 and has since gone on to perform at the highest level including 3rd in the Grade 1 Ryanair Novice Chase at Punchestown and winner of two Grade 3’s at Naas.
Winner of the Pertemps Network Final at the Cheltenham Festival in 2016, Mall Dini, also won at this meeting in 2015.
Other exciting young talent to come from this meeting include bumper winner and recent novice hurdle winner, Way Back Then and Burren Life, also trained by Gordon Elliott, a recent winner of a Novice Hurdle at Thurles and also placed in both Grade 2 and Grade 3 company over hurdles.

Is there a dress code for point-to-points?

There is no standard dress code for point to points but we would advise anyone attending the races to dress warmly and to be prepared for everything that the Irish weather can throw at them. It is advisable to have appropriate footwear and outer wear for wet conditions. There is no harm is being stylish at the same time!

Preview

Many of the leading yards are represented here on the first weekend of four-year-old races in 2018. Appreciate It has an eye-catching pedigree, as his handler Pat Doyle saddled his half-brother, Danny Kirwan, to run out one of the most impressive four-year-old winners during the autumn, and if he was to show up here, he would be sure to have his supporters. The market will give the best indication of what is expected from the other newcomers, which also include Monsieur D?Arque, Storm Arising and Nearly Perfect, who were all not cheaply bought.

To his credit, he powered home and is sure to be of interest. Noflashback and Speedy Cargo are closely matched on their meeting at Turtulla and they will not be far away.

Confidence was high ahead of the debut of MADERA EXPRESS as she was well-supported in the market. Whilst she was not able to get her head in front on that occasion, she ran a great race in defeat, staying-on late, and can gain compensation here. Cloone Lady and Berboru, who also both finished second when we last saw them in competitive action, are the likely dangers.

SYDNEY PAGET recaptured his winning ways at Aghabullogue just under a month ago and he will look to follow-up here, but he will likely not have things his own ways as there are a number of serious dangers, none more so than Marinero and Lac Fontana. The former made a winning debut for the David Christie yard at Tinahely and is sure to have improved for that reappearance run, whilst Lac Fontana, a former Grade 1 winner, is another sure to have improved following his second at Killeagh.

STAR WIZZARD disappointed in very testing conditions at Moira before Christmas, but if you discount that effort, his runs at Dowth Hall and Ballinaboola would entitle him to leading claims in what is a wide open race. The lightly raced 10-year-old, Abbazagga, is back between the flags with some placed track form to his name from 2016, whilst Three Loud Knocks, Cubanera and recent maiden winner, Ajijic, are others for the shortlist.

Preview

GIGIPLAN TWO SEVEN is out of a half-sister to Double Seven, who finished third in an Aintree National for Martin Brassil, and he will be hoping that this Scorpion gelding can step-up from his debut at Knockinroe when third to Buckie Cullen. Dowth runner-up, Thinkinginmysleep, and the returning Cluth, can also get involved.
