Inspections everywhere

The prospects for racing over jumps today in the U.K. and Ireland do not look too bright after overnight frost, and all 4 racecourses - Cheltenham, Doncaster, Uttoxeter and Fairyhouse (Ireland) have called for a second inspection later in the morning. The biggest problems would appear to be at Cheltenham, where the temperature dropped to -7 last night, and typically, of course, this track has easily the best card, with the so-called Trials Day for their big March Festival.
