The IHRB has announced that the decision has been made to remove the three chase races from the Clonmel fixture to be held on Friday, 5 June.

This action has been made "due to current ground conditions and a prolonged period of mainly dry and warm weather."

The three chase races will be replaced by additional hurdle races and HRI will release the relevant programme changes later today for the June fixture at Clonmel.
