SATURDAY’S meeting at the Curragh has been abandoned to ensure that Sunday’s card, which includes the Darley Irish Oaks, has every chance of going ahead.

The ground at the track is currently described as soft to heavy after substantial rain at the County Kildare venue and more is forecast.

Officials have decided to call off Saturday’s fixture in the hope of the feature event going ahead 24 hours later.
