Coolmore N.H. Breeders Point-to-Point Incentive Returns

Following the success of last season’s initiative, the Coolmore National Hunt division is happy to announce that the Point-to-Point Incentive will return for the new point-to-point season beginning on Saturday, 5^th October.

Once again, breeders of an open 4YO or 5YO only Irish Point-to-Point maiden winner during the new season, sired by any Coolmore N.H. stallion (past or present), will receive a €1,000 credit. This credit can be applied towards the purchase of any nomination to a Coolmore N.H. sire during the 2025 breeding season. Breeders can accumulate multiple credits, although only one may be used per nomination.

"Point-to-points are the grassroots of Irish racing and play a vital role in developing future stars," said Albert Sherwood. "The success of last season’s incentive showed how much breeders appreciate being recognised for their efforts, and it's fantastic to be able to reward them for their success in the point-to-point field."
