Point-to-point action went ahead in testing conditions at Tattersalls, Co. Meath, today and two winners for the Milestone Bloodstock Ltd, Colin Bowe and Barry O’Neill partnership brought success to Wexford.
Two newcomers Honky Tonk Highway, a three lengths success in the maiden race for four-year-old mares, and Farfromnowhere, with a runaway 45 lengths victory in the maiden race for mares aged five years and over made the trip from the Kiltealy Stables worthwhile.
Reigning national point-to-point champions, handler Colin Bowe and rider Barry O’Neill are top of the leader board with 11 wins to their credit in the 2023-24 championships and Bowe (31%) and O’Neill (30%) both are impressive in the strike-rate stakes.
