POINT-TO-POINT horse racing action heads to the fabulous historic course at Buckfastleigh tomorrow (Sunday), where the Modbury Harriers’ six-race card promises to offer another great day out for all the family.

The Totnes & Bridgetown-sponsored mixed open race is the feature of the day, with some highly rated ex-national hunt legendary horses being among the entries.

The two Sam Loxton-trained entries Samategal and Chameron could be giving promising young jockeys Olive Nicholls and Ben Sutton some thrilling rides if they’re at the finish, along with Silsol for Ella Orttewell looking to give Will Biddick another winning training performance, and Envoy Special for young trainer Christopher Barber.

The action kicks off at 12 noon, with the Tony Glynn Scaffolding-sponsored open maiden race for four, five and six-year-olds, in which His Own Star (Stuart Sampson) and Between You And Me (Neil Mclean) could be among the likely favourites having shown some promise in Points to date.

Stanley Carpets sponsor the restricted race which could go the way of Fountains Chief for the Teresa Clark team if recovering from his early fall at last weekend’s Wadebridge meeting.

Another catching the eye is Kings Quay for trainer Matt Hampton, having won his maiden last season by six lengths at Cherrybrook.

The retraining of racehorses and veteran condition race follows, which looks equally thrilling. Blackwater Bramble for the Alexandra Dunn team won at this course in December 2018, following that up with two Larkhill wins. However, the eye is drawn to Molineaux for young jockey Freddie Gingell and team Tizzard, who could improve on the close second they achieved at Larkhill.

Samategal for promising young female jockey Olive Nicholls is also entered in this, and should go well having unseated early on at Larkhill, with Silsol another who could be switched to this race, and give Ella Orttewell a deserved win at this track.

Toad Hall Cottages sponsor the open maiden race for seven-year-olds and upwards in which Riding Shotgun is the highest rated and will be high in the betting for the Laura Jones team. Also, Bloodstock agent Tom Malone looks to have a hot entry with recent Irish purchase Jeremy Central.

Honest Opinion is another catching the eye for the in-form Dean Summersby team and could progress here.

Finally up is the Exeter Racecourse-sponsored Intermediate race, which holds a hunter chase entry at their finals in April. This looks equally competitive with Famous Clermont (Chris Barber), Hotel Du Nord (Will Biddick) and Party Tunes (Dean Summersby) among those who the bookies will be juggling with.

This course offers fabulous viewing, easy access alongside the A38 at Dean Prior, hot food and refreshments along with a Real Ale bar and plenty of trade stands. Entry to the course is £15 per person which includes a racecard. Children under 16 are free. Dogs on leads welcome. Course postcode is TQ11 OLT.
