Lisronagh will go ahead today after the fixture was found to still be raceable at an additional 11am inspection on Sunday morning.

The going at the Tipperary venue is Heavy after an additional 7mm of rain fell between 8am and 10am. The fixture gets underway at 1pm and is the sole fixture on Sunday after heavy rain claimed the day's two other fixtures at Tinahely and Kildorrery.

The course at Tinahely had initially been found to be raceable at the 8am precautionary inspection, however the IHRB issued a further update at 9.15am which stated that the fixture had now been called off as parts of the track were now unfit for racing following heavy rain throughout the morning. 

The news was also dissapointing for Kildorrery. The committee had posted on their Facebook page on Saturday evening, stating that the Duhallow fixture was cancelled, and this was confirmed by the IHRB on Sunday morning. A rescheduled date for this fixture will be announced when confirmed.
