Exeter and Leicester abandoned

More bad weather news - after heavy overnight rain, both of the British N.H. meetings today have been abandoned. The loss of Leicester is especially frustrating, not only because it was unexpected, but because it would have been the scene of Tony McCoy´s attempt to ride his 3,000 th winner over jumps. Obviously he will reach this target, we hope this week, but it is annoying just the same. We still have N.H. racing from Newcastle, as well as two all-weather meetings in the U.K. and also jumps racing from Ireland, where Limerick stage the rescheduled meeting from Sunday, in addition to French racing from Cagnes-sur-mer.
