Action beings at Limerick for an 8-race Flat card at 12.50, and following 2mm of rain the going remains heavy (Flat) and soft, soft to heavy in places (National Hunt).

There's a mainly dry weather forecast with the risk of some light showers, and of course there is a big jumps card tomorrow at Greenmount Park featuring the Grade A JT McNamara Ladbrokes Munster National Handicap Chase.

This afternoon's centrepiece meanwhile is the Jim Ryan Racecourse Services Munster Mile Handicap.

For the eight race National Hunt programme at Fairyhouse (first due off at 1.35) the ground is described as yielding, yielding to soft in places.

There's the risk of showers this afternoon at the County Meath venue.
