Clashing with the Aintree Grand National next Saturday, April 13th, Island Hunt were due to unveil a new course at Peppards Castle, between Kilmuckridge and Ballygarrett on the east coast for their upcoming point-to-point, but the fixture has now been switched to Ballycrystal, near Kiltealy.
The programme of six races remains unchanged, with the card set to begin at 2pm with a four-year-old maiden and entries close at 12 noon on Tuesday, April 9th.
Only one fixture survived the weather conditions this weekend, the Louth Foxhounds meeting at Fairyhouse, Co. Meath, today (Sunday) and just one Wexford winner.
Newcomer Flamingo Grove cruised to an eight lengths victory in the maiden race for four-year-old mares for handler Jonathan Fogarty, Gaynestown Stud, Cleariestown, and a 12th career success for Kilmore Quay rider Conor Moore.
