This afternoon's meeting at Sedgefield has been abandoned due to a frozen track.

Temperatures dipped well below freezing overnight and an initial check at 8am proved inconclusive.

Clerk of the course Charlie Moore looked again at 10am but conditions had not improved enough.

"We've gone I'm afraid," said Moore.

"It is just not warm enough, it is still below freezing and there is not sufficient time for the track to improve.

"It looks a good decision now anyway as it started snowing only minutes after we called it off."
