Huntingdon goes ahead

Wednesday afternoon's National Hunt meeting at Huntingdon goes ahead after the track passed a morning inspection.

Clerk of the course Sulekha Varma had been concerned by a chilly overnight forecast but reports the track to be raceable this morning.

She said: "The air temperature only reached 0C and we ended up with just a slightly crusty frost on the ground.

"The sun has come up and the temperature has started rising quickly."
