Racing: Officials at Fairyhouse have called a precautionary inspection for 7.30am ahead of tomorrow's meeting. Although the track is raceable at present, temperatures are forecast to drop overnight at the Co Meath venue.

The Irish Turf Club's Cliff Noone said: "They are optimistic but they will take a look in the morning due to the threat of overnight frost.

"They had a couple of millimetres of rain today and the ground is heavy but that isn't a concern, it's just the frost."
