Track Biography:
Kildorrery race committee provide an ideal family day out in a picturesque setting with everything close to hand.
Holding their first point-to-point in 1939, races moved to its present venue in 1979. We have been lucky to have been involved in the build up to Cheltenham races in recent years with our meeting being held on the last Sunday to qualify for the Foxhunters. We also hosted a Cheltenham racing press day in 2004.
Notable horses that ran here include Scorpiancer who won his five-year-old maiden on his debut for Eugene O’Sullivan before going on to win the Foxbrook Champion hurdle in the USA.
Other horses of note to have ran here include Monty’s Pass who won the 2003 Aintree Grand National.

Preview
It has paid to follow Ellen Doyle in this contest, as she has been responsible for the winner of all three previous editions, including with Divine Diva, the winner 12 months ago, who has already secured black type for Dan Skelton by finishing placed in a Listed bumper at Cheltenham. The Wexford handler is responsible for almost half of the entries this time around, with six possible canditiates, including the E42,000 purchase Thetype Istitle. Of the other entries, the Colin Bowe-trained Miss Sacree was a E47,000 purchase from France and is out of a sister to the superstar Srinter Sacre.

FOUND IT is not short of potential targets this season, and if taking up this engagement she could be the one to follow after chasing home a more experienced rival at Cragmore on debut. The more experienced Tiffiniys Girl has been knocking on the door or late, having gone close at both Dungarvan and Tallow, whilst the Boulta-third, Queen Lily, and the twice-placed Morissette are others for the shortlist.

With limited placed form on offer, it could be worth noting ALAMO AIGLES for this. The French-bred was sent off as an odds-on favourite for his debut in a Ballynoe four-year-old maiden, and whilst he was unable to justify that market confidence, he could be worth a second chance here. Takiwatanga does not have the typical pedigree of a point-to-pointer, but he kept on well to finish third on his first start in this sphere at Tallow recently, whilst the trio of Colin Bowe entries with previous experience all hinted at ability and cannot be discounted.

TAKIWATANGA sports the same silks that were victorious in this race ten years ago by Harry The Lemmon, and he could repeat the feat in this, having acquitted himself well on his stable debut at Tallow. That was also his first outing in this sphere, and despite his flat pedigree, he more than suggested he would be up to winning a race like this having kept on for third. Time To Invest could be turned out quickly after running well on debut at Knockanard in a similar contest last week, whilst Annie Questions has changed stables since running on the track at Wexford last summer, and she has plenty of previous placed efforts to her name.

MAGIC SADLER has proven to be an incredibly consistent performer in the pointing fields this season, winning four times and finishing second in his two other outings in the sphere this season, so it is hard not to see him playing a leading role in this. Leading mare, The Great Unknown, had the measure of Asian Master at Bellharbour, and will bid to confirm that here, whilst the locally-trained Hunt Away is another to consider.

Preview
The returning SUPREME WALK has been absent since finishing a fine fourth in a Bartlemy five-year-old maiden last May, and he could overcome that absence in this. Lewis Road is race fit after finishing second at Ballyvodock three weeks ago, whilst I See Fog went close to opening his account when last season in this sphere, having finished second at Knockanohill 11 months ago.
