Rob Burrow’s new charity racehorse has been found lame and will miss its planned debut at Doncaster on Tuesday.
Rugby league star Burrow and his family were due to be at the Yorkshire track to see Beep Beep Burrow run to help raise funds for the Motor Neurone Disease Association.
Burrow and his wife Lindsey still plan to attend the meeting but the horse has been scratched by trainer Jedd O’Keeffe from the Good Luck "Beep Beep Burrow" Open Maiden National Hunt Flat Race at 3.30pm.
