Horse racing: Waterlogged Fontwell inspects and adandons

Image: Fontwell: Has been abandoned

Fontwell's jumps meeting on Wednesday has been abandoned due to a waterlogged track.

With areas of standing water on the track, the West Sussex venue was always going to be up against it when course officials staged a 9am inspection.

And so it proved, as seven millimetres of overnight rainfall further compromised the chances of racing.
