The going at Cheltenham is good to soft ahead of the festival getting under way tomorrow.

There is the risk of a light shower later today with a dry forecast through to racing.

Willie Mullins' Kopek Des Bordes aims to get the Irish off to a flying start in the Grade 1 Michael O'Sullivan Supreme Novices' Hurdle.

He was an impressive winner of a Grade 1 novice hurdle at the Dublin Racing Festival in Leopardstown last month and sports a first-time hood in Prestbury Park.
