Hopes are high that today's two remaining turf meetings in Britain will beat the threat from frost.
However, the jumps fixtures at Catterick and Stratford are subject to 7.30 a.m. inspections.
Today's meetings at Kempton and Haydock were called off yesterday when both courses were found to be frozen.
Australian challenger Logician was yesterday the subject of an ante-post gamble with Coral for the Tote Cheltenham Gold Cup.
Logician, who is being stabled at Ian Balding's yard, was backed with Coral Eurobet at 100 to 1, 80 to 1 and 66 to 1 before settling on 50 to 1. The run of money was reported to have been caused by a tipping line.
Gold Cup betting: 9-4 First Gold, 6-1 See More Business, 8-1 Cyfor Malta, 9-1 Marlborough, 10-1 Beau, Rince Ri, 14-1 Legal Right, Nick Dundee, 16-1 Florida Pearl, 20-1 bar.
Anzum looks set to make his reappearance at Cheltenham next Saturday.
The 1999 Stayers' Hurdle winner has had his return to action delayed because of the spate of abandonment's this season, the latest coming with the loss of today's meeting at Haydock Park.
Denise McHale can take a place in the spotlight by striking with Coco de Mer today.
Attention is likely to focus on the all-weather Flat fixture at Lingfield, with two jumps meetings abandoned and the cards at Catterick and Stratford hinging on inspections.
So headlines could well be made by the likes of Miss McHale, a successful amateur rider who has sent out five winners since setting up as a trainer in Newmarket in February of last year.
Coco de Mer can earn her some good publicity with victory in the Crusader Handicap.
The four-year-old is a good advert for his trainer as he looks to have been revitalised since moving to her yard, having been on a gradual decline for the past 12 months.
He has shown plenty of early dash in two starts from his new home, failing to stay six furlongs at Southwell first time then running as though he still needed the outing back over the minimum trip here last month.
Coco de Mer should be spot on tomorrow, certainly in good enough heart to take advantage of a potentially lenient handicap mark - which has dropped another 5lb since his last run.
