Warwick to inspect

Warwick have a precautionary inspection for 8am ahead of their afternoon meeting due to the threat of frost.

Although clerk of the course Fiona Needham reports the track to be raceable at present, she will check the ground as temperatures are forecast to drop overnight.

She said: “At the moment we are absolutely fine and there are no problems, although we will be racing on heavy ground.

“The forecast is for temperatures to drop to minus two or three overnight but given that the sun comes up much earlier now, we don’t envisage any problems.

“However, we thought it best to call a precautionary look just in case.”
