Read our privacy policy Newbury and Warwick have both abandoned their weekend cards after the frozen tracks failed Friday morning inspections. Newbury’s Betfair Hurdle fixture is therefore set to take place on Sunday 21 February - while Warwick’s meeting, featuring the Agetur UK Kingmaker Novices’ Chase, will be put back just two days to Monday. It was no surprise, after a week of freezing temperatures nationwide and snow which has wiped out the British jumps fixture list since last Sunday, that Saturday’s scheduled cards did not pass their inspections. Friday evening’s scheduled all-weather Flat meeting at Chelmsford was also abandoned after a morning inspection because of the freezing conditions and with snow still on the track.
