Following another dry 24 hours, the ground at Ballybrit remains good (National Hunt) and yielding (Flat) ahead of Guinness Galway Hurdle day.

Watering commenced on the National Hunt lines at 5am.

The forecast is for mainly dry weather over the coming days.

The feature race is off at 6.15pm with the first of eight races getting under way at 4.35pm.

It's close for favouritism in the big race with the likes of Magic Tricks Belfast Banter and Winner Takes Itall towards the head of the market this morning.

The going for this afternoon's action at Goodwood is now described as Good to Soft.

Aidan O'Brien's Joan Of Arc has been popular with punters this morning for the featured Group 1 Nassau Stakes. The daughter of Galileo has replaced Audarya at the head of the market and is currently trading at 15/8.
