Watching brief for Newbury9th February 2012
Newbury are still hopeful that Saturday's 'Betfair Super Saturday' meeting can beat the weather.
The course is perfectly raceable at present, but snow is forecast this evening with temperatures due to dip on Friday night.
With the likes of Gold Cup winner Long Run, Arkle favourite Sprinter Sacre and Triumph hero Zarkandar all due to run, officials are desperate for the fixture to take place.
