Freeze hits weekend race meetings

Sunday's meeting at Carlisle has become the latest to be abandoned because of freezing temperatures.

After an inspection on Saturday afternoon, clerk of the course Andrew Tulloch said he had no option.

He said: "Even though it has warmed up, with the wind-chill factor it's just not coming out of the ground.

Saturday's meetings at Warwick and Wetherby were both called off while Punchestown have rescheduled their meeting to Monday.
