HORSE racing has fallen victim to the wintry conditions, with no meetings for a third successive day.

Tomorrow's Leicester card has already been called off because of a frozen track.

Officials called an inspection for 8am on Monday to make an early assessment of the conditions.

But with the track already unraceable and further freezing temperatures forecast, clerk of the course Jimmy Stevenson felt it was a straightforward decision to cancel the card.
