Bomb scare proves a hoax for Harlow....
BY PHIL DONALDSON OF THE RACING POST..
THE afternoon SIS meeting at Harlow on Monday had a delayed start of 20 minutes while police dealt with a bomb scare.
Track owner Dave Barclay said: “Someone had left a message on my office answerphone on Saturday, but I only picked it up on Monday.
"The call suggested there’d been a posting on our website saying there was a bomb on the site. We looked, but there was nothing on the web pages, but I couldn’t take any chances so we alerted the authorities.
"The police came, brought sniffer dogs in and quickly gave us the all clear."
When the stadium was declared safe, the meeting got back on schedule within four races.
