Officials at Leopardstown expect "perfect jumping ground" to prevail for Saturday's high-profile meeting.
The Foxrock circuit will play host to a fantastic card, with the Irish Gold Cup the centrepiece among four Grade One events.
Enda Bolger's On The Fringe, winner of the major hunter chase prizes at Cheltenham, Aintree and Punchestown last spring, will also make his first appearance of the season.
Leopardstown general manager Pat Keogh cannot wait for the big day to arrive.
"We're very excited and we're looking forward to a great day's racing," he said.
"People love to come and see racing of that kind of quality.
"We're going to get a bit of rain tomorrow - up to 10 millimetres, which will move through fairly quickly.
"We're expecting the track to be soft, soft to heavy in places on Saturday, so perfect jumping ground."
