Frost threat to three cross-channel meetings

THREE of today’s four National Hunt fixtures in Britain will have to pass early-morning inspections as the cold snap continues to grip.

Wetherby, Huntingdon and Kempton have all been forced to check conditions after three of yesterday’s meetings were lost due to frost.

Officials at Wetherby and Huntingdon will be the first to inspect, with a decision on racing due to be made at 7.30am.
