Mild Musselburgh good to go

This afternoon’s meeting at Musselburgh will go ahead without the need for the planned 7am inspection.

After a few cold nights north of the border officials erred on the side of caution by calling a check.

However, with temperatures reaching no lower than 0C, there are no problems whatsoever.

Musselburgh's general manager Bill Farnsworth said: "We're OK, we've got no problems.

“It was 3C when we got in this morning and although the temperature will drop between now and daybreak, we’ll be fine.”
