RACING: Huntingdon rain threat

This afternoon's scheduled meeting at Huntingdon hinges on a precautionary inspection at 7.30am. The going is soft but with heavy patches. A course spokeswoman said yesterday: "The track will not take much more rain."

Prospects at Wincanton, today's other turf meeting, are good. But Sedgefield yesterday became the 32nd full casualty of the jumps season when its fixture was abandoned due to frost. Today's jumps card at Lingfield had already been called off because of waterlogging.
