Friday’s meetings at Naas and Exeter will go ahead as planned after both tracks passed morning inspections.
The Naas card, which features the Grade One Ballymore Novice Hurdle, was transferred from its original date last Sunday due to a frozen track.
While the course was fit for action on Thursday, officials called a precautionary check for 7.30am on raceday due to the threat of overnight frost, with the go-ahead given following that inspection.
Exeter were due to inspect at 8am with two weather warnings for snow and high winds in place overnight, but that assessment was brought forward and racing will take place.
