Carlisle abandoned

Sunday’s meeting at Carlisle is the latest to be abandoned due to freezing temperatures.

After an inspection at 2pm clerk of the course Andrew Tulloch was left with no option but to draw stumps.

“I’m afraid we’ve abandoned,” said Tulloch.

“Last night was one of the coldest we’ve had and even though it warmed up a bit, with the wind-chill factor it is just not coming out of the ground.

“It left us with no option really.”
