Plumpton and Hereford call precautionary inspections

Monday’s jumps cards at Plumpton and Hereford will have to pass precautionary inspections on raceday morning.

Further rain and strong winds are forecast overnight, prompting the need for a morning check.

The ground is described as soft, good to soft in places with an 8.30am inspection planned.
