Thurles goes ahead without chases

Sun 20th Dec 2009, 08:31

This afternoon's meeting at Thurles has been given the green light for racing, although the two chases on the card have been abandoned due to frost.

Turf Club officials announced a 7.30am inspection due to the recent cold snap, and are pleased to report the hurdle and bumper course fit for racing.

The Listed Horse And Jockey Hurdle is the feature on a five-race card, where likely favourite Mourad faces five rivals. The action gets underway at 12.35, and the going is described as soft to heavy.
