Track Biography:

Since 1945 Ballynoe has been noted for its well-staged and successful point-to-point meetings. The current racecourse in the townlands of Garryanne & Killavorilla has been in use since 1983. 1987 saw the introduction of the Waterford Co-Op Gain Final, now better known as the Gain Mares Final,  and has been going from strength to strength ever since. 

The 2018 running sees the continuation of the Gain Mares Bonus of €3000 presented to the winning owner by Gain Horsefeeds & Ballynoe Point to Point Committee. An always exciting finale to a thrilling series of mares’ races as any mare, a maiden at the beginning of the season, who places 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th, at any point to point in Ireland qualifies to enter the Gain Mares Final.

2018 also sees the introduction of an €1000 bonus being added to the 5yo & Upwards Mares Maiden, kindly sponsored by the O’Keeffe family in memory of their father, the late James O’Keeffe, one of the original members of Ballynoe Point to Point Committee in 1945.

A good galloping course with an extensive view for the spectators. A right-handed circuit of just over a mile. The Ballynoe fixture typically falls on the first Sunday of April except when that weekend is Easter weekend, and in recent years has generally moved to March 17th due to the congestion in the Cork Waterford Point to Point Circuit.

Previous noted winners on the track include, My Murphy who won his maiden in Ballynoe in 2011, and went on to win the Thyestes Chase in Gowran Park in 2016. Also Carter Mckay won his maiden in 2016, and went on to be favourite for the Champion Bumper in Cheltenham 2017.

Preview

There are no fewer than 49 entries for this opening contest, with Fortunate Fella bring two previous placed efforts. He hails from a stable that were among the winners in this age group at Quakerstown last weekend, but he has form to overturn with PAUL COLLINS, who is preferred having finished over six lengths in front of him in a decent Kirkistown contest last time. Lon Chaney is the biggest threat, as he held the slight edge before exiting at Castlelands last month.

Preview

JARRIVE DE MEE had a subsequent winner behind him when finishing a close fourth on debut at Boulta back in November. The Authorised gelding travelled very strongly into the race on that occasion and could be the one to follow. Rucker Road made a more recent debut at Lisronagh a fortnight ago and was only beaten some five lengths which brings him into the reckoning alongside Minella Kaiser and Phoenix Arizona.

MADAME LE STRANGE would have gone very close but for falling at the last at Castlelands on her debut in a race where the front pair had pulled a long way clear of their rivals here. Compensation should come here. There was plenty of market support behind Nastya ahead of her debut at Turtulla in November, and whilst she was ultimately no match for a subsequent six-figure seller on that occasion, she was not without promise in second. The well-related Pure Design is next best.

PEGGYS ROCK has got the better of geldings on two occasions this season in winners company and that sees her set a strong benchmark in this. Bar a blip at Kirkistown, her form has been rock solid throughout the season, and it leaves her as the one to beat ahead of Millie B. She too is a consistent individual, having finished either first or second in all four of her completed starts this term, including a wide-margin success at Ballycahane most recently. Millie Supreme was a disappointing favourite at Monksgrange last week, and it will be interesting to see if connections turn her out again quickly.

This has quite an open look to it, and so it may be worth siding with THE LAST MINUTE. He would have finished placed for the second consecutive time, but for falling two-out at Ballyragget and his connections could gain compensation here. Avenue De Pais put two non-completions behind him to finish a close second at Lisronagh, whilst Cold Old Fire and Await The World are not without their chances.

CARRY ON TEARS is also entered earlier on the card, but if taking up this entry he could be the one to beat as he has run a number of solid races this year, including when only beaten six lengths at Dungarvan. A reproduction of that could be good enough to take this. Truckers Cruising offered plenty of promise on his penultimate outing and is back from a break, whilst John?s Delight was still in with his chance when exiting three-out at Lisronagh last time.
