Scotland's cricketers have lost their opening qualifier for the World Twenty20.  The Scots went down to America by six wickets - the defeat means Scotland must get the better of Afganistan and Ireland if they are to progress.

Today's race meeting at Sedgefield goes ahead after an earlier inspection - they also go at Market Rasen and Southwell with the donkey Proud Presence running in Market Rasen's 1400.
