Wednesday’s meeting at Bangor has been abandoned due to waterlogging.

Officials at the track were due to hold an inspection at 4.30pm but clerk of the course Ed Gretton said: “We’ve had to knock it on the head I’m afraid.

“We’ve had two-thirds of an inch of rain and that coupled with the high local water table has meant we’ve had to abandon.

“The river is nearly flooding and by tomorrow will probably have done so.

“We’ve got waterlogged areas on the course and it’s just not going to abate before tomorrow.

“It’s disappointing.”
