Hamilton abandoned

Click here to find out more!:

"FRIDAY'S evening fixture at Hamilton has been abandoned after overnight rain left parts of the track waterlogged.

The forecast on Thursday was for heavy rain that evening and although only 7mm fell at the track, officials decided conditions were not fit for racing following an inspection on Friday morning.

Clerk of the course Hazel Peplinski confirmed the bad news, she said: 'We have had to abandon the meeting as parts of the track are holding the water and it would be too risky to race.
'It's a real shame as the majority of the track seems fine but the 7mm of overnight rain has caused certain areas to become waterlogged and it is just not worth the risk."

Doh!
