Track Biography:

Point-to-Point Racing in Liscarroll was revived in 1954 when a 5 race programme was staged on Monday, April 26th.

Almost 70 years later, the fixture has reached new heights and is an important date on the Irish racing calendar.

The Fixture under the auspices of Duhallow Hunt Club is renowned for the success of its graduates and the list of big race winners includes no other than the great "DENMAN" - prolific Grade 1 winner and his amazing victory in 2008 Cheltenham Gold Cup will be remembered for many years to come.

Lisnagar Oscar won his maiden here  in 2018 and was then victorious in the 2020 Stayer's Hurdle at the Cheltenham.

Denman is also joined by "Lovely Citizen" & "Whyso Mayo" (Christies Foxhunters), "Timbera" (Irish Grand National), "Peddlers Cross" (Neptune Novices Hurdle & 2nd to Hurricane Fly in Champion Hurdle),  amongst many others.

It is pleasing for the voluntary members of the hard-working & energetic Committee to see the graduates excel on the big stage.

The Racecourse itself is know as the "Cheltenham" of the South.

Horses run left handed and all parts of the track are visible - no hiding places !

More recently the Fixture has enjoyed much publicity from high profile events on Race Day.

2017 was a momentous year for the Club when celebrating the life of the late great Dr.M.V. O'Brien, who was born in the parish in 1917. A wonderful day for the family, Club and Community.  

In 2018, The Club welcomed President of Ireland, Michael D.Higgins to the Fixture and in 2019, RTE Nationwide Broadcasting Team presented an excellent overview of Point to Point Racing in Ireland.

In 2019 RTE's Nationwide was on site for the race day and portrayed all that is good about point-to-point racing.

Race Day is a parochial event and the Committee extends a cead mile failte to all visitors.

There will be a new parking lay-out in place for the 2025 fixture.

The Dublin Racing Festival runner-up With Nolimit won a division of this race last year for Jonathan Fogarty, and the Wexford handler has two possible contenders in a bid to repeat the feat. Whereweallbelong cost E75,000 at the store sales, whilst stablemate Mr Tamborine, who is closely related to the former Irish Gold Cup winner Conflated, commanded a similar fee. Fellow newcomers Passage Guenot and Musical Chairs cost JP McManus six-figure sums last year, whilst of those with experience, CLUAIN MEALA sets the standard for Colin Bowe, after his runners-up effort at Knockanohill.

DCEILINGCANTHOLDUS will have pleased her connections with a very encouraging debut at Knockanohill recently, when she was beaten by just over three lengths. It would be no surprise to see her step forward with that initial effort under her belt. Boombox is not short of recent experience and finished a fine second at Nenagh last month, whilst stablemates Ar Aghaidh Lead and Agusta Diamond were both sent off as market leaders for their respective luckless debuts. They could be worth noting here.

Preview

Subsequent Cheltenham Festival winners Denman and Lisnagar Oscar are previous winners of this contest, and there are no shortage of contenders for the 2026 renewal, headed by AN CAPALL BAN. The eye-catching grey bumped into a smart-looking winner at Borris House on his recent debut, and he would look to set the standard as a result. Rumi Rock and Captains Song both have non-completions to bounce back from last time, but they had offered plenty of promise in their respective debuts, whilst Minella Monty hails from a family that John Nallen has already done well with previously. He could be one to note.

CALL OF FREEDOM failed to find a buyer after his wide-margin Dromahane success in December, but the form has since been franked to suggest he could be the one to follow in this. There are no shortage of last-time-out maiden winners stepping into this company for the first time. Among them, the mare Silent Temptation justified short odds at Lisronagh, Sir Topham Hatt won by a wide margin in Ballygogue House, whilst Black Dakota won a big-field maiden at Cragmore that has already produced three subsequent winners.

BALLINTEMPLE KING has been knocking on the door in recent weeks with two fine placed efforts at Carrigarostig and Ballyvodock, and this would look to be a nice opportunity for him. Derlbnomoreaboutdat is better than his Ballynoe effort last Sunday, but does have a quick turnaround to overcome if he is to bounce back, whilst the 80-rated hurdler, Three Tribes, could get more competitive with the switch from the track to this.

PROPHETESS DEBORAH had a slender lead coming to the last in Ballyragget recently, only to find one younger rival too strong. The switch into older maiden company could be rewarded in this. Shell Be Kept has been out of luck of late but is capable of landing a blow, whilst the consistent pair of Glenmalure Flyer and Morissette have no shortage of previous placed form, and they should not be too far away.
