The ground at Roscommon is currently Yielding, Yielding to Soft in places. The forecast is for a dry and warm day.
The first of seven races on the National Hunt card is due off at 6pm.
Among the early market movers, David O'Brien's Icelip has shortened from 9/1 to 6/1 for the two mile handicap hurdle at 8pm.
This is the eight-year-old gelding's first trip to Roscommon but he was successful on his penultimate start in Tramore, over the same trip. Cant Wait is very solid in the mares' bumper which concludes the action at 9pm. She won in Thurles but was demoted to second and also took the runner-up spot in Wexford.
Punters have snapped up the 11/4 and she now trades at 2/1.
