The ground at Gowran Park remains yielding to soft and the weather forecast is for a dry day. Racing gets under way at 2.05pm with the Listed Victor McCalmont Stakes the feature at 3.35pm. This pits Aidan O'Brien's Exotic Dermot Weld's I'm Yours and Mick Halford's Mizzava against each other. I'm Yours has been priced up as the favourite.

At Naas, which holds a fixture tomorrow, the going is good to yielding after 2mm of rain overnight. The forecast is for a mainly dry today with risk of an isolated shower and then sunshine and showers tomorrow.
Ahead of the Punchestown Festival which starts on Tuesday, the track reports its ground to be good to yielding (on the hurdle and chase courses, watering to maintain). There was 3mm of rain overnight. The cross country course is currently good to firm.
