Monday's jumps fixture at Ffos Las has been abandoned due to a frozen track.
Clerk of the course Tim Long made the inevitable decision upon inspecting conditions on Sunday morning, as overnight temperatures had dipped to minus 8C. There was no prospect of improvement on the horizon, so the cause was beyond hope.
Long said: "It's still minus 8C and there is frost under the covers. We are forecast a daytime high of 0C, following an overnight low of minus 6C."
He added: "There is no way the frost will come out of the ground by Monday, so it was pointless messing people around."
The remaining Monday fixtures are a jumps meeting at Folkestone, which must first survive an inspection, and an all-weather fixture at Wolverhampton.
