Track Biography:
The point-to-point track at Ballycrystal is held on the lands of point-to-point handler Matthew Flynn O'Connor in Kiltealy.
The first meeting took place in January 2020 under the auspices of the Ballinagore Hunt Club, the Island Foxhounds have also used this track for their Autumn fixture.
The course itself is a left handed track and the runners will go downhill for a furlong and a half before it levels out. There is a gentle rise to the line.
In all it is a mile around on each circuit with fives fences. Three of the fences are jumped in the home straight, and all of them come before the winning post. There is another fence at top of the course and the fifth fence is in the back straight.

Preview
STORM BRESIE has the benefit of two solid efforts and that experience could prove valuable in a race where many rivals lack previous form. Colin Bowe is well represented with three entries including Goodbye Earl who shaped well when third on debut and should progress from that effort. However a number of newcomers also catch the eye on pedigree. Fundamental Right is from the family of Bellshill, while Old Colony is a son of Walk In The Park from the family of Madison du Berlais. Pelelive is a half-brother to the listed winner Israel Champ and Traditional Rock represents the family of Grade 1 winner The New One.

Preview
LOMAN LADY sets the standard following a solid effort on her latest start and she could prove difficult to beat if reproducing that level of form. An Puca Liath has been knocking on the door with a sequence of placed efforts and that consistency makes her a leading contender again. Inventing Anna shaped with promise when third on debut and could take a step forward from that run, while All Quality is from a family that has produced several winners and is an interesting runner for Robert Tector. Vienna Blue is closely related to the Champion Bumper winner Fayonagh and also commands respect on pedigree, while Lutece Borget is another newcomer of interest being from the family of Pineau de Re.

Preview
The locally-trained CLASSIC DANCE may have fallen on debut at Ballindenisk last season, but he would have finished placed but for that final-fence tumble, which has to give him leading claims to his. Quartunis brings strong recent form into the race and should again be competitive, while Jet Away Island and Order Of Choice have both shown enough ability to enter calculations. Colin Bowe also fields two interesting newcomers in Quarter Split and the expensive purchase Surelooksurelisten, while Staple Flight and Ballintrane Duke are others worth noting on pedigree.

DEPALMA has been running consistently well for the in-form Sam Curling yard and his sequence of placed efforts makes him a leading contender in this company. Comeoutofthefog produced a solid performance to get off the mark last time and could follow up if building on that success. Chasing Chances arrives here after an impressive victory at Borris House and must also enter calculations while Kiwi De Cotte could build on his recent Tinahely success.

Preview
The open contest features several proven performers and could develop into a fascinating clash. HEARTS AND SPADES arrives in outstanding form having put together a sequence of victories and his rating makes him the one to beat. Gale Force Jet has also been running consistently well in open company and looks the obvious threat if producing his best. What Path continues to run well at this level while Asphalt Cowboy also has strong form in similar company and cannot be overlooked.

Preview
CEBU CITY looks the most consistent runner in the field having finished runner-up on several occasions and this could be his opportunity to finally get off the mark. Supreme Walk holds a solid rating and could pose the main challenge if returning to his best form. Coolcullen has also been placed several times this season and should again be competitive while Maison De Balzac and Glenmalure Flyer are others capable of getting involved in what looks an open contest.
