That's blown it!

Noooooooooooooooooooo. After what can best be described as a "tricky week" the best chance of a really good day has gone. Newcastle races are off due to frost. This would be bad enough on a normal week but with the late start of the Kempton races, it has torn a knife through the card today. I just have to hope that the others races can deliver something so I can salvage something on the year on year comparative totals. I estimate that is around the 16th meeting lost to the weather this year. It has not been a good one from that perspective.
