The going at Leopardstown today is Soft to Heavy after 2mm of rain yesterday and overnight. Bright spells and hazy sunshine are expected, with a chance of light rain or drizzle.

The Group 3 Leopardstown 1,000 Guineas Trial Stakes at 3.45pm is the feature on the seven-race card. Bookmakers have installed Dermot Weld's Balansiya as favourite on the back of her impressive course and distance victory in a maiden last season.

Meanwhile, in Limerick the going remains Heavy following 16mm of rain in the last 24 hours.

The Grade 2 Hugh McMahon Memorial Novice Chase (4.35pm) sees a clash between Domination and Touch The Eden They head the market for this six-runner race, however, Rogue Angel Folsom Blue and Letter Of Credit cannot be dismissed and look set to make this a fascinating contest.
