Races abandoned due to several areas of waterlogged ground after yesterday's heavy rain. The pleasant day forecast will unfortunately not be enough to make the track suitable for racing today.

The view from the top of the stands is as good as anywhere sparrow but I find it very unfriendly and the crowd flow is poor around the back of the stands and around the paddock,
