Today's fixture at Cork has been cancelled following an early-morning inspection.

IHRB Clerk of the Course Val O'Connell said: "Following another night of frost, unfortunately the track at Cork is unfit for racing following our inspection this morning due to parts of the track being frozen.

"Temperatures got to minus two again overnight and remain below freezing at present and, without there being a sufficient rise in temperature prior to our first race at 12.30pm, we have no option but to cancel the fixture.

"The team at Cork Racecourse will liaise with Horse Racing Ireland about a date for rescheduling this meeting in due course."

Meanwhile, there will be a 7.30am inspection on Sunday morning ahead of the action in Naas due to the possibility of snow.
