AN INSPECTION will take place at Musselburgh Racecourse tomorrow (Thursday) ahead of a jumps meeting due to take place on Friday.
Heavy snowfall in East Lothian over the last 24 hours has now put the seven-race card in some doubt.
Harriet Graham, clerk of the course, tweeted this morning to say the course is currently "unraceable", but hoped some rain in the next 24 hours would give them a chance of getting the meeting on.
