The rain in Yorkshire was so severe last night that today's scheduled Juddmonte International Stakes is unable to go ahead.
This news will no doubt disappoint punters, many of whom were looking forward to one of the most intriguing races of the season.
One of Aidan O'Brien's star horses Duke of Marmalade, a three-time Group One winner already this season, was set to go up against Epsom Derby winner New Approach, with Henry Cecil's charges Multidimensional and Phoenix Tower also in the mix.
However, the race has now been called off and it is unknown whether it will be able to be rescheduled.
According to the latest news from Setanta Sports, it is hoped that the 36-year-old Group One event will take place on Friday.
An article which appeared on the Telegraph's website last night commended O'Brien for being willing to put Duke of Marmalade into such a tough race and picked the Ballydoyle horse to triumph.
