Racing at Gowran Park cancelled

Racing : Tomorrow's meeting at Gowran Park has been cancelled as the course is waterlogged

Racing: Tomorrow's meeting at Gowran Park has been cancelled as the course is waterlogged. Officials held an inspection this morning and had hoped to delay a final decision until tomorrow morning, but further rain forced their hand.

"They've had a lot of rain down there unfortunately so they brought the inspection forward and found the track waterlogged," said Irish Turf Club press officer Cliff Noone.

"They had a good drop of rain for three hours and the course could not take any more. As it's not going to be any better in the morning they decided to cancel the meeting rather than wait."
