Thurles Now to Inspect Tomorrow Morning

Thurles have brought forward their planned inspection and will now assess the track at 9am on Wednesday ahead of their Thursday fixture.

Officials had initially called a 9am check on the morning of racing but have decided to look earlier due to an unfavourable weather forecast.

The chases at the Irish venue have already been abandoned due to the state of the ground and track officials will take a look to decide whether a card consisting of five hurdles races and a bumper can get the green light.

The Irish Turf Club's Cliff Noone said: "They have brought forward the inspection due to an unfavourable weather forecast.

"They first heard temperatures were meant to rise later in the week but that doesn't look like being the case now and the frost is in the ground."
