There are two fixtures this weekend with Navan (12.05pm start) racing on Saturday and Thurles (12.20pm) on Sunday.

The going at Navan will be testing with the official description this morning Soft to Heavy.

The course at Thurles is currently Yielding to Soft. Two horses to look out for this weekend, if declared to run, are Vivega, a 4-y-o full brother to Quevega who is entered in the bumpers at both meetings and Un De Sceaux in the Featured Horse And Jockey Hurdle at Thurles. Both horses are trained by Willie Mullins.

When Un De Sceaux bolted up in a Novice Hurdle at the Punchestown festival in April Mullins compared him to Arvika Ligeonniere and the free-running sort is certainly a very exciting prospect.
