Track Biography:

Laois Hunt Foxhounds hold ther bi-annualy Point-to-Point race meetings on the grounds of Stradbally Hall, the venue for the fixtures for over twenty years. Btoh meetings ran at Stradbally are held in the Spring, the first in mid-April and the second in mid-May. Ease of access and the unique setting make this a very popular event.

Stradbally Hall, as it appears today, dates from the middle of the 19th century. Stradbally Hall has been the seat of the Cosby family since the reign of Edward VI. We are very lucky to have such a picturesque setting where spectators have a view of the full course which runs over beautiful parkland.

One of the joys of point-to-point racing is the opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the future stars of Irish racing. Fundamentalist begun his racing career between the flags in the Irish countryside. The Cheltenham Festival winner recorded three wins in the pointing field, the second of which was achieved at Stradbally.

faqs

Is there a dress code for point-to-points?

There is no official dress code. Smart casual attire is advised but most importantly, it should be suited to the weather on the day.

Dogs are more than welcome but must be kept on a lead at all times.

Stradbally Hall is a beautiful venue and when the weather is favorable, it is a wonderful setting for an afternoon picnic. We encourage this and have seen many groups enjoy everything from mini BBQ on a sunny afternoon to hot-toddies during chillier weather.

Kid?s entertainment is provided typically in the form of a bouncy castle or a similar attraction depending on the weather.

There is no ATM at the course but there is an ATM in Supervalu which is located across the road from the entrance to Stradbally Hall.

Amenities

Stradbally Hall is a very picturesque venue that is easy to access from all routes. It is well known as the location for the Electric Picnic Festival which is held in September. 

With a superb view of the track, this event is ideal for those who would like to enjoy a picnic while watching the racing.

Parking is available very close to the final fence and finish line.

Children’s entertainment is provided. This is typically a bouncy castle or similar attraction depending on the weather at the time.

Occasionally, supplementary entertainment such as cossack riding, side-saddle and best dressed ladies and gents competitions are organised.

Preview

This looks to be quite an open race on paper but SINTER is the horse that catches the eye. He was the subject of notable market support at Stowlin recently, and although that money went astray when he finished fourth, he was beaten less than five lengths in what was an improvement on his debut. He could be the one to follow here ahead of The Moon And Me who finished fifth on debut at Fairyhouse. Parish Well and Creapapy are others open to improvement.

POUR ME A DOUBLE was outstayed by a nice type in testing ground at Necarne last time, and the return to a sounder surface should be rewarded as he does have the eye-catching form of having beaten a subsequent hunter chase winner before that. Romeo Magico has switched stables since taking an unplaced maiden at Castlelands, whilst Ivegotdapower won a big-field maiden at Dromahane and should also be in the shake up.

SINTER is also entered earlier in the card and whichever of the possible engagements that he takes up on this card he looks to be the one to beat after his latest Stowlin effort. Fine As Wine is on something of a recovery mission after disappointing last time but has strong form in the book and should be up to winning a race like this, whilst Knockiel Synge has the experience to get involved in the place battle here.

THE KIDS CHOICE comes here fresh from a career best effort at Dromahane last month, a race which would have received a form boost had the horse who finished behind her in fourth not fallen at the last in Grennan last week when looking the likely winner. She could have the measure of the experienced Stellar Symphony, with Neat Locality in good form of late which would also bring her into contention.

Preview

Having filled the runners-up spot in each of his last two starts, TUFF DAYS could gain a deserved success here. That are no shortage of potential dangers, with Matthews Hill having finished second in the Bishopscourt Cup at the Punchestown Festival chief amongst them, alongside his stable companion Knockiel Synge, and the likes of Radharc Na Slaine and Imperial Rule.
