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.

Our venue offers spectators brilliant viewing facilities.  Onlookers can use the mound behind the bookies to view the climb over the last two fences. Spectators can also watch all the action from the centre of the track and get very close to the racing.

We an unlimited amount of parking with use of the field beside the point-to-point.  We also shelter in our marquee should we get an odd shower!

We also have parking facilities for the disabled where they can view the action from their car if they wish.

The betting ring is located adjacent to the parade ring, some of the bookmakers also provide pictures and take bets on track racing in both Ireland and the UK.
 

We have a terrific committee with over 60 volunteers some of which run the catering marquee where there are freshly made sandwiches, teas, coffees and refreshments.

There is also a hot caterer on site which sell burgers, chips etc..

For those who have a sweet tooth, we have a sweet stand who sell, chocolates, jellies and much more…
 

In our marquee we have plenty of tea and coffee to keep you warm.

Our outside caterers have a big selection of refreshments also.
 

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.

Set amongst the beautiful Tipperary countryside, our well-presented race track with its compact location of parade ring, bookies, finish line and services give a pleasant race day experience close to the action.

Colin Bowe has a 100 per cent strike rate with his four-year-old maiden runners in 2024, with Korkoran battling gamely to win at Ballinaboola last Sunday, and he is strongly represented with five potential runners for a race that he won two years ago with the subsequent track victor Willmount. Pat Doyle won this race 12 months ago with the recent bumper runner-up Cest Ta Chance, and he went very close to winning in this age group at Bellharbour last Sunday to suggest Youdecide is worthy of note.

JUBILANT is a well-related son of Doctor Dino, and he was only denied a debut success at Tyrella last month by a little over a length. That likely leaves him as the one to beat ahead of stablemate Lanesborough. There is little other previous form on offer leaving the newcomers as the most likely threats to the Colin Bowe pair.

Although FANCY PROSPECT did fail to back up her promising debut at Lisronagh when failing to finish at Boulta, she has been given a break since and could be worth a second chance here. Prophet Squeeze came down at the last when likely booked for second in a small-field Quakerstown maiden, and she could step forward, Sophie Gold needs to recapture her form from last season, whilst Elsa Bay is a horse that has improved between each of her two outings to date.

DJO DELA BARRIERE may have come a cropper at Turtulla in a similar contest last month, but he is worth following again as his Punchestown form from last November stands out. He finished third behind the subsequent Grade 2 winner Loughglynn in a maiden hurdle on that occasion, which sets the standard in this. Cicero Grimes has been knocking on the door for some time and should not be too far away again, whilst Graigue Corner is another with previous placed form.

This is a very winnable race on paper compared to some of the races in this division of late, and DIESE DES BIEFFES could be worth taking a chance on despite pulling up in each of his last three races. Joy Of Life acquitted himself well behind Hitak at Aghabullogue, Maid On The Moon has been running well this season, whilst Boss Robin won at this fixture last year and would have claims on the pick of his hunter chase form.

Preview

TOTTENHAM GREEN was never involved at Tyrella on his re-appearance when the winner slipped the field from an early point, but if he was to recapture the pick of his form from last season, he could be hard to beat in this. Cash Cut showed promise at the start of the season despite unseating in each of his opening two outings, and whilst he has since disappointed, this is an opportunity for him and the likes of Arctic Skua and Western Wishes.
