Following a course inspection at Punchestown this morning the course was found to be fit for racing and will go ahead as scheduled.

The first race will get under way at 12.35 and the ground remains heavy.

There has been an early market move for the outsider J'y Vole in the featured John Durkan Chase. The Willie Mullins' trained mare is now generally 10/1 from a best price of 16/1.
