3 meetings abandoned today

The disastrous weather continues and 3 meetings today have been abandoned - Carlisle, Nottingham and Leicester. However racing at Haydock, Beverley and Bellewstown (Ireland) goes ahead after inspections, although the ground will be very testing at these tracks. The good news is that Sandown, which has by far the best card today, featuring the Group One Eclipse Stakes, has missed much of the rain and the going there is good to soft, soft in places.
