Monday's racing bulletin
The Five Live selection is Chatshow in the 1650 at Wolverhampton (all times GMT).

Monday's jump racing card at Plumpton has been abandoned because of the freezing conditions in Sussex, but the flat racing goes ahead on the all-weather tracks at Lingfield and Wolverhampton.

Temperatures dropped to -7C overnight at Lingfield but the ground staff will be harrowing the track on Monday morning to ensure that the six-race

card can get underway at 1400.

Dial Square should get favourite backers off to a winning start in the opener.

The four-year-old has won five races at this track in the past 12 months - three of those coming over Monday's distance of a mile - and he looks a solid prospect against weak opposition.

Sovereign State catches the eye in the 1530.

He has been running well over hurdles of late and his flat form is strong enough to win in this low standard.

Wolverhampton's seven-race card gets underway at 1350 and Kavi is a worthy favourite in the 1550.

Trainer Simon Earle, a former jump-jockey, has been making the headlines of late by winning with horses who run without shoes.

Kavi was a 33-1 winner two runs back at Lingfield and was unlucky not to follow up there on Saturday.

Tony Carrol's yard has been in fine form on the all-weather tracks over the past few weeks and notched a double at Wolverhampton on Sunday.

Chatshow in the 1650 is strongly fancied to give owner Dennis Deacon his seventh winner in the last three weeks.
