Track Biography:
The Pigeon Hill Committee and the Carrigtwohill Committee amalgamated in 1958 to form the Pigeon Hill & Carrigtwohill point-to-point Committee.
They have organised a Point-to-Point in the Carrigtwohill area ever since. 2018 is the 60th Anniversary of this race meeting.
Traditionally race day has been an occasion when the people of the parish came out in large numbers to enjoy a day of fun and activity.
Full details of all our special offers are on the Pigeon Hill and Carrigtwohill Point to Point Facebook Page.
The excellent condition and quality of the Ballyvodock track historically has attracted a large number of entries from owners and trainers from all over Ireland.

We also provide a disability parking area with fence viewing on the home straight.
In our bookmakers ring you can view and bet on any off-course races on the day in both England and Ireland.

Traditionally race days have been an occasion when the people of the parish came out in large numbers to enjoy a day of fun and activity.

Preview
EASY TO FOLLOW was only denied by the narrowest of margins at Dromahane on her debut and it might not take much further improvement from her to go one place better and continue a good season for her handler Maike Magnussen. Redzy Rocco is from another stable enjoying a good run of late and she stayed on strongly to finish just a head behind Easy To Follow in that same Dromahane contest. Eve Moneypenny and Jalisco Star look to be next best of those with previous form.

DRUMCLIFF BAY had the misfortune of falling twice within 48 hours when lining up at both Dromahane and Ballindenisk over the Christmas and New Year period. He would have finished a strong second on his latest outing only to come down at the last. If over those exertions he would look to set the standard for this ahead of stable companion Syracus Du Houx. Park The Giant was third at Dromahane last month and can step forward, whilst there are a large number of newcomers in this who are sure to play a big part and the market will give a good guide as to what is expected from them.

KEEP ME POSTED and Busty Boy could face off once again in a repeat of the Ballindenisk event at the beginning of the month where they finished first and second. They look two of the smarter winners division horses this season with the latter franking the form by subsequently winning at Turtulla by 24 lengths, but it is Keep Me Posted who is taken to confirm the Ballindenisk form. Johngus has been running respectably in hunter chase company whilst Getaway Lodge beat Lord Schnitzel in a maiden when last seen 490 days ago and that looks to be a notable piece form ahead of his return.

ROPED IN was very unlucky not to open her account on the track last season as she was a mark of consistency over both fences and hurdles during the summer jumping season before an uncharacteristically below-par performance in Galway last September. Her connections could have found a very nice opportunity here for her points debut. The frontrunning Shot Tower offered plenty of promise before his final-fence departure in a similar event at Ballindenisk last month and can step forward here, whilst Whatwoulditb was sent off as the favourite for a Turtulla race confined to handlers with ten or less winners in the autumn.

Preview
The absence of La Feline presents a real chance for another mare to get on the scoreboard in open company this season and it could be FORT WORTH TEXAS and Rose Of Coolbally, two horses that chased her home in the autumn that take full advantage. The former could have the edge of that pair. Glenbeg Express won well at Carrigarostig whilst Georgette Fun is a 118-rated hurdler with very few miles on the clock and could be interesting on her stable debut.

Preview
FOCUS POINT and Longhouse Star have a number of alternatives are not likely to cross paths but whichever of the pair was to appear here would set a strong standard for the finale on what they showed on their latest outings in Borris House and Boulta respectively. U Asking Me, Royal Rocco and the returning Cold Sobar would all hold definite place claims.
