Heavy ground at Hexham The going for this afternoon's national hunt meeting at Hexham is Heavy. There was 3mm of rain overnight and the 7th and 9th fences have been omitted from today's chases due to the condition of the ground. Two of the three Irish trained runners at the meeting have been scratched, Dante Anna and The Ice Factor. High winds have delayed many sea crossings. The other national hunt meeting today is at Leicester where the going is Soft on the hurdles course and Good to Soft, good in places on the chase course. There was 2mm of rain overnight.
