The final day of Lingfield’s Winter Million Festival on Sunday will have to pass a precautionary 8am inspection tomorrow morning but officials are optimistic of getting the go-ahead.

The course had to abandon the opening day of the three-day fixture on Friday due to a frozen track but following a 2pm inspection this afternoon, officials are happy the venue should be fit for jumps racing tomorrow.

Charlie Moore, head of clerking at Arena Racing Company, told ITV Racing: "We've had difficulty with the forecast this week, it's been four degrees wrong on two nights. It's amazing this track has taken minus 8C and minus 7C in the last two nights.

"If we had to race today, we could make this track raceable with some track adjustments. We're going to pass the inspection, but we are going to put in a precautionary inspection at 8am tomorrow purely because we are aware at around 10/11 o'clock tonight it could get down to just touching freezing.

"If that was wrong and it was minus 2C we could have a moment of sweat in the morning, but if we get what is forecast, we'll be texting everyone around seven o'clock in the morning saying 'we're on'.

"I will be very surprised and hugely disappointed if racing did not take place tomorrow."

The ground is currently good to soft, soft in places.
