Conditions have improved slightly at Fairyhouse ahead of their meeting tomorrow.

The ground is now described as soft, heavy in places (dead ground) having been heavy, soft in places yesterday.

The seven-race card is set to feature two Grade 2 events. Action kicks off at 1.00pm with the Grade 2 Winning Fair Juvenile Hurdle.

The other Grade 2 event on the programme is the At The Races Bobbyjo Chase, a leading Grand National trial.

Naas race on Sunday and the ground there is soft to heavy, soft in places for their Paddypower.com Cheltenham Trial Day.

There are three Grade 2s on the card there. Mikael D'Haguenet is among the entries for the Woodlands Park Chase.

The Grade 2 Novice Hurdle could be a cracker with the likes of Defy Logic, Don Cossack, Moscow Mannon and Annie Power all holding entries.

The Grade 2 Paddypower.com Chase also looks set to be a decent contest.

The forecast is for the weather to be cold and dry this weekend.
