are set to inspect on Monday morning ahead of their scheduled afternoon meeting after Sunday’s card was lost to freezing temperatures.
The track was due to host a seven-race all-weather fixture as one of two British meetings on Sunday afternoon but neither got the go-ahead, with Kelso also abandoned after minus temperatures.
More sub-zero readings are due through the night ahead of Monday’s racing and the team at Lingfield will inspect their Polytrack surface at 8am to see if the meeting can be held.
“The track is raceable as of 2pm today and we’ve called a precautionary inspection for 8am tomorrow due to the forecast over sub-zero temperatures overnight,” said Stephanie Wethered, clerk of the course at Lingfield.
“The forecast does look to be kinder to us than previous nights, however.
“We’ve been working on it all day today and we’ll continue working on it until we reach minus temperatures.”
Exeter, Wolverhampton and Punchestown are all also due to race on Monday with no current need for inspections, whereas Plumpton will inspect at 3pm ahead of their Tuesday card as the ground remains frozen.
