Track Biography:

The Wexford foxhounds was formed in 1810 at Slevoy castle.

Our point-to-point has been in different locations over the years including Wexford racecourse, Gowran Park and Lingstown before being moved to its current location at Moorefields in November 2011. We run two meetings a year, one in the autumn at Knockmullen House, with our spring fixture taking place in Ballinaboola on the first weekend in February.

Set in the heart of Co. Wexford the course is left handed with a circuit of one mile and three fences in the home straight providing many exciting close finishes.

It is a very fair track of two long straights with two gentle left-handed bends, there are five fences on each circuit which measures a mile a lap.

The track has produced many top class individuals including the likes of Envoi Allen who made a winning debut in the four-year-old maiden in 2018 before progressing to become a multiple Grade 1 winner. That 2018 renewal also saw Appreciate It finish third, and he has also gone on to become a multiple Grade 1 winner in his own right for Willie Mullins.

Preview

Ellen Doyle, Harley Dunne and Colin Bowe are the three handlers to have won the last three renewals of this opening four-year-old maiden of the year, and all three could be represented again as they feature among the entries. That latter has three French breds entered in the colours of Walter Connors, which throws back to their 2018 victor Envoi Allen, who has since developed into an eight-time Grade 1 winner.

MILLFORCE chased home the recent Cheltenham sales topper Old Tom Morris at Turtulla recently in what would look to be the pick of the form on offer in this. There are no shortages of potential dangers, headed by Be Positive, who finished fourth in a Curraghmore maiden last season where the first two horses home have either finished first or second in bumpers. Of the others, Incitatus was sent off as a short-priced favourite at Aghabullogue recently and was not beaten far.

WHATMAKES HONEY B comes here after a career-best effort at Lingstown in November, and she has the experience to open her account in this. Lady Mags has not been seen in just under a year, but when she did dead-heat for second in that Tinahely contest, she had a subsequent maiden behind her. Game On Babe brings more recent form, with two solid efforts last month from Tinahely and Ballycrystal, whilst there are a number of newcomers from top yards that should also be considered.

GRANGE SOLDIER stepped up from his seasonal re-appearance when finishing second at Ballycrystal a fortnight ago, and that likely leaves him as the one to beat. Creegh Native has been knocking on the door in each of his three outings this season, and having only been narrowly denied at Bellharbour is likely the pick of the dangers ahead of Willitgoahead, who has not been seen since also filling the runners-up spot at Umma House back in October.

Preview

MEMORIES NEVER DIE was last seen in action finishing third over hurdles at Fairyhouse off a mark of 94 last season and a reproduction of that would leave him as tough to oppose. Walk Easy made up for an unfortunate fall at Turtulla whilst still involved when finishing second at Dungarvan last week, the same card that Arctic Skua also made the placings. Worth The Walk and A Nice Malbec are others to note.

Preview

DE NORDENER took apart an open at Dungarvan last season, his second success in as many weeks following an effortless victory in Ballycrystal seven days earlier. If lining up here it would be his fourth run on consecutive weeks and if that has not taken its toll he is definitely the one to beat. The Eddie Power pair The Blind Piper and Shiroccosmagicgem are solid alternatives, whilst Top Of The List was entitled to need his return run at Turtulla and should fare better for that.
