Racing:Tomorrow's meeting at Chepstow has been abandoned due to a waterlogged track, while Catterick is also doubful and will need to pass another inspection tomorrow morning.

The latter is currently frozen in places with a light covering of snow but the forecast for the next 48 hours is favourable.

“We are currently unraceable," said clerk of the course Fiona Needham. “We have frost in the ground and a light covering of snow.

“However the temperatures are due to rise and we are supposed to get some rain and if that materialises we should be fine.”
