Bangor Friday card declared a washout

Friday's jumps meeting at Bangor has been abandoned due to a waterlogged track.

Course officials moved forward their intended 8am inspection once the situation was found to have been untenable at daybreak.

Though there is a forecast for a sustained dry spell, heavy rain earlier in the week exacerbated an already bleak picture - part largely to severe downpours during December which resulted in unusually high river levels.
