Ground unchanged at Tipperary The going remains unchanged at Tipperary ahead of their three-day fixture which kicks off on Sunday. The Flat course is still heavy and the national hunt tracks are soft, heavy in places. There are heavy showers forecast for today and showery conditions are expected for the rest of the week. Sunday's mixed card features the Grade 2 Friends Of Tipperary Hurdle which could see a clash between dual French Champion Hurdle winner Thousand Stars and Galway Hurdle hero Rebel Fitz. There is also a Group 3 on the Flat and top sprinters Starspangledbanner and Gordon Lord Byron are both entered for the seven furlong Concorde Stakes. The ground is good, good to soft on the Flat track at Gowran ahead of their two-day fixture which starts on Friday. Both the hurdle and chase courses are currently good.
