Weights for Thurles' opening race today are not in descending order as per usual, due to an administrative error.

The Adare Manor Opportunity Maiden Hurdle has 19 declarations, including three reserves, with previous winners (Arthurian Fame, Gendarme Go Fox Red Striker Streets Of Doyen Divine Approach and Politesse to carry an 8lbs penalty.

An administrative error yesterday morning meant weights were incorrectly apportioned but has now been rectified, albeit not in descending order.
