Track Biography:

The South Westmeath Hunt have a long history of holding a point-to-point meeting spanning over 100-years as far back as the early 1900’s. The point-to-point was originally held in Kilkenny West before being moved to Listisson, The Pigeons in 1978.  In 2020 they moved to their current location Umma House.

Situated less than 15km`s south-west of their former long-standing course, the track is a good galloping track with two long straights.

We are delighted to be able to provide free parking which allows spectators to have a clear view right around the track. This also allows the public to stay dry in their car without missing out on any of the action if the weather takes a turn for the worst.

Head over the bookmaker’s ring where all of the day’s off-course horse racing, be it at Leopardstown or Cheltenham, will be shown and you can also bet on the away action alongside our own races.

As we are an outdoor event that only happens once a year, many of our facilities are only temporary which adds to the real character of the event. We do of course have a number of portaloos, catering options and much more to ensure you have a very pleasant experience with us.

In between races, spectators can avail of the variety of catering options that we have on offer.

Our food tent is located beside the parade ring which means you don’t have to venture too far from the action to enjoy the social side of point-to-pointing.

There is also a choice of soup and homemade sandwiches on offer supplied by our committee members.

If hot food isn’t what you are looking for, we also have a delicious selection of cakes, buns and other tempting sweet treats that are made fresh by our hard-working committee members.

Amenities

A day at Umma House point-to-point races is the ideal day out for all the family in the heart of the Irish countryside.

With little placed form on offer, this could be an opportunity for LAMIE CAOUETTE to bounce back to form. Fourth on debut at Tattersalls, the E75,000 store purchase was not at her best in Bartlemy subsequently, but is worth a second chance here. Jewel Of Windsor ran well for a long way at Ballyknock in testing conditions and is likely to have improved, while the many newcomers are certainly worth a market inspection in a race like this.

Preview

STRAND ROAD had looked booked for a placed finish on debut at Taylorstown when falling at the final fence, and that would look to be the strongest piece of previous form. Star Of Diamonds showed a good deal of improvement in between his opening two runs and if he continues in that vein will surely be involved in the shake-up alongside the Bartlemy fifth Trojan Du Berlais, and the progressive Kilkee Bay.

This does not look to be the easiest of races to solve and so the tentative selection goes to the sole newcomer VALLEY GIRL who is out of a dam that has already produced multiple track winners including the ill-fated listed winner Cedarwood Road. Annie Questions brings the strongest previous form on her Kildorrery effort where she was not far behind a subsequent bumper winner when falling at the last.

THE BOSSES OSCAR had the potentially re-opposing Garm Colombe and Some Are Lucky behind him when making a winning return to the pointing fields in a similar race at Castletown-Geoghegan three weeks ago. Bold Enough is a new rival from him here, and he was in terrific form last spring winning eight races on the bounce. Stranger Danger narrowly beat Bold Enough in a tight finish at Ballingarry in May and could also kickstart his season here.

MIDNIGHT SHOW was still in front when falling three-out at Loughrea recently on what was his stable debut, and he could gain compensation here at the expense of Oscars Brother who finished off last season with two promising second-placed efforts at Dawstown and Ballindenisk. Jet Patrol has switched stables during the off season and is another that should be knocking on the door alongside the returning Willitgoahead.

Preview

Between Heather Kiernan and Peter Flood, the handlers have won the last two editions of this race and they field the only two runners with previous experience. The latter had to settle for second 12 months ago with KNOCKIEL SYNGE but could go one better here by using his experience to account for Generous Valentine who will be tackling obstacles for the first time.
