Today's Horse Racing

What a miserable week!

ITV were showing 10 live races tomorrow but Wetherby & Warwick have already been abandoned. Kempton has an inspection today at 11.30 for Saturday.

I'm just south of Kempton and the ground is rock hard this morning and a hard frost will be here overnight as well. So there is no chance it's going ahead I reckon.

What a miserable week!

Betfair suspended the chairman of the BHA Joe Saumarez Smith's account then requested documents because he had cancer.

Not sure how asking a customer for a copy of his passport, picture of his debit card and a utility bill amounts to anything to do with safer gambling or customer protection. Absolutely shameful behaviour from Betfair, even worse they try to attempt to justify it.

Someone dropped an unfortunate bollock in the 19:30 @ Wolves, backing Land Lover rather than Prince of Bel Lir right at the finish. Probably a colour mix-up. Looks like £6k-ish done all the way down to 1.01.

Always good to see The King get a winner, Tom Marquand been over in Japan riding and straight back banging a double in

Of the three meetings this afternoon in the UK, two of them won't go off on time!

[Euler]

Now inspecting at Ludlow, what a farce.

[Michael5482]

I'm convinced horse racing in general is smacked off it's t@ts half of the time.

[jamesedwards]

Wincanton changes:

Race 2 - 1:25 +5 minutes (now 1:30)
Race 5 - 3:10 +5 minutes (now 3:15)

[jamesedwards]

It's going to be a complicated afternoon...
