Hereford meet abandoned

Hereford have called off this afternoon's meeting due to a waterlogged track.

Clerk of the course Gemma Charrington had planned to inspect at 8am but she brought that check forward after substantial rain throughout Sunday.

"We have had to abandon due to waterlogging," she said. "We had 24 millimetres of rain between 8.30am and 8.30pm yesterday.

"The brook which is underneath the course has got blocked and the water is coming up to the surface so we do have an area of standing water."
