CHELTENHAM PREPARING TO COVER UP.

Quote:
Both the Old Course and the New Course are to be covered as officials at Cheltenham bid to beat any threat from the predicted cold snap early next week.
Covers will be put on the Old Course, to be used on the first two days of the Festival (Tuesday and Wednesday), and the New Course, raced on the last two days (Thursday and Friday).
Vulnerable parts of the cross country course, which will be in action on Tuesday, will also be covered.
Officials remain confident the Festival will go ahead as planned, but feel they need to take this action because of the importance of the fixture.
