Track Biography:
Set amongst the picturesque Blackstairs Mountains, our race track is located close to the parade ring, bookies, final fence and the finish line making it extremely assessable for all of the family to view the day’s action.
Our point-to-point is located on the grounds of the beautiful Borris House which is one of the few intact living Irish estates that can trace its history back to Brehon times, and the royal ruling families of ancient Ireland. The estate is the family home of the 16th generation of McMorrough Kavanagh’s and still contains the majority of its original furniture, paintings, documentary archives and other historic family artefacts.
Borris House is a popular wedding venue with a range of beautiful accommodation offers to choose from as well as providing tours of the estate.

Gary Murphy was successful in this race 12 months ago with Chosen Comrade, who is entered for the upcoming Cheltenham Festival following a pair of track wins, and the Wexford handler has two potential chances to repeat the feat with newcomers Magika Bella and Personal Space. There are a number of nicely related individual entered, including the locally-trained Ashland, who is a half-sister to the recent Grade 1 runner-up Thomas Mor.

Preview
Rob James is responsible for two of the three horses entered for this with previous race experience in Silent Reckoning and Legendary Status. That pair will need to step forward from their debuts, but the stable was among the winners in this division last weekend. Brian Lawless has had two winners from three four-year-old runners in 2026, and his three newcomers in this have to be respected, whilst Pat Doyle introduced a nice winner last weekend, and he had a trio of well-bred potential first timers entered that are worth considering.

CAPTAINS SONG looked likely to place on his debut at Umma House in October, only to give way late on, and back from a mid-season break, he should likely be a player in this. Catching Jets was unable to justify market confidence at Ballycystal in January, but he had shown plenty of promise when making his debut at that same Wexford venue before Christmas to leave him as a contender, whilst there are a whole host of newcomers representing leading stables, and they will like play a big role.

DEDUDEFROMHOUSTON ran out a comfortable winner of her maiden at Punchestown recently having taken a nice step forward from her Ballycrystal debut, and the progressive five-year-old could be the answer to this. Time In A Bottle potentially found Knockanard too stiff a test last time, having won her maiden at Tyrella, so this track could be a better fit for her, whilst her returning stablemate Iorens ran well against geldings at Rathcannon, and has seemed to take a step forward this season.

SUPREME WALK bypassed a couple of potential engagements last weekend, but if making his belated seasonal re-appearance in this, he could be the one to side with, as his form from five-year-old maidens last season should see him well up to winning a race like this. His stablemate Maison De Balzac reserved most of his best efforts last season for nice ground, and he needs to put two disappointing efforts this season behind him, which would likely leave Chasing Chances as the danger. The 92-rated hurdler was placed in a four-year-old maiden around here at the start of his career.

Shark Hanlon was successful in this race two years ago with the subsequent three-time track winner Getaway King, and COMEOUTOFTHEFOG could be tough to oppose as he seeks to repeat the feat. The Feel Like Dancing gelding had the narrow advantage coming to the last in Comea last time, before only giving way late on. Legend De Touchette made a couple of errors when disappointing at Tinahely in January, but if he could bounce back to his Damma House effort he would be the danger.
