Hamilton abandoned
02/09/2012 - 10:34:21The meeting at Hamilton scheduled for tomorrow has been abandoned due to unsafe ground.
Although a dry night was reported following 1.9 millimetres of rain on Saturday, areas of concern in the straight on already heavy ground led to the decision to abandon.
Clerk of the course Hazel Peplinski said: “Unfortunately things haven’t improved and having raced on heavy ground just the other day, there are now some unsafe areas.
“If we had some fresh ground we might have been all right, but we suffer here because it’s such a narrow track and we are racing on the same strip of ground all the time.
“It’s a decision made with regret as that’s now our third abandonment of the season and the ground has not been better than soft since May.”
