Racing: Navan's fixture on Wednesday has been cancelled with the meeting instead transferred to Tuesday, October 17th.

Explaining the switch, a spokesperson for Horse Racing Ireland said: "Wednesday's meeting was cancelled for health and safety reasons. It's to do with the new weighing room and building work that has been going on over the summer, which is just not quite finished at the moment."

The original programme of races will be staged but fresh entries for the meeting must be made by 12 noon on Thursday, October 12th.

Entries that have already been made must still be repeated, however, and declarations to run must then be confirmed by 10am on Monday, October 16th.
