Tuesday's meeting at Fairyhouse cancelled

Tuesday's meeting at Fairyhouse has been cancelled due to the heavy rainfall caused by Storm Debi.

The 20mm of rain since declaration has left the course unfit for racing, with a rescheduled date yet to be confirmed.

"Following 20mm of rain overnight, which was more rain than what was originally forecast for Fairyhouse, the track is now unfit for racing and the fixture scheduled for tomorrow has been cancelled," said IHRB clerk of the course Brendan Sheridan.

"We needed the rainfall to come up short of what was forecast but unfortunately we got slightly more and the track will not be raceable in time for tomorrow due to the volume of rain on ground that was already soft, heavy in places.

"We will liaise with Horse Racing Ireland about the possibility of rescheduling the fixture."
