Forecast temperature rise offers some hope

Market Rasen have announced an 8am inspection for Monday ahead of Tuesday's National Hunt fixture after another heavy overnight frost. Although the Lincolnshire course is currently frozen after another heavy frost on Friday night, managing director Pip Kirkby is expecting temperatures to rise over the next couple of days. Kirkby said on Saturday morning: "Temperatures got down to minus 8C last night and the course if frozen at present. "But the forecast suggests things will improve going towards Tuesday and we'll take a look at things on Monday morning to see where we are. Temperatures are set to rise, but we're not sure how much at this stage."
