Track Biography:

Scarteen has long been synonymous with Hounds, Hunting and hospitality. When Thady and Anne Ryan retired to New Zealand in 1987, Chris and Sue took the reins and have maintained this tradition.

This is the first year to host our at point-to-point meeting at our new track Comea. 

The Scarteen (Black and Tan) Hounds have been in the Ryan family for over 350 years and attract visitors from all over the world.

We have held our point-to-point at Kilfeacle on John Heaney’s land for over 15 years.  It has attracted many good horses over the years including the likes of Dorans Pride, Ned Kelly and First Lieutenant.

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

We have no dress code but as our meeting is in January we do recommend warm clothing.

Yes dogs are welcome but must be kept on a leash.

People are very welcome to bring their own food.

It is a great day out for all the family and for children to enjoy the great outdoors.

We have no ATM on course, the nearest would be in either Cashel or Golden if you would like to stop on your way to the races.
