Welcome to Chepstow Racecourse!
A very warm welcome to everyone joining us today at Chepstow Racecourse for our summer afternoon race meeting.
We’d like to extend a special thank you to our valued sponsors: BETTING.BET and BETTINGSITES. CO.UK. Your generous support is greatly appreciated and we look forward to watching your sponsored races unfold this afternoon.
We’re also incredibly grateful to all the owners and trainers for their continued dedication and for bringing their horses to today’s meeting. We wish you the very best of luck with your runners!

Keep an eye on our social pages, website and newsletters for announcements on what we’ll be doing to celebrate our 100th birthday!
We’re very proud today to be supporting Racing Staff Week through Racing Welfare. We work in a wonderful industry, and at the heart of that industry is a core foundation of hard-working people who care and love both the sport and the horses. This week we shine a light on those individuals and thank you for everything you do.
Whether you work in a racing yard or a racecourse, involved in breeding or sales, or you work in any role that involves servicing our fantastic sport, this week is dedicated to highlighting the amazing work you do to keep the show on the road and make Horse Racing the incredible spectacle that it is.
With that in mind, I’d like to take the opportunity to personally thank my team, both the permanent and casual team on site as well as the wider support team, for their dedication and hard work to make Chepstow racecourse the venue that it is for so many to enjoy. From the grounds team, to the office team, the cleaners to the catering, all of your work is greatly appreciated and I am very grateful to have a wonderful team around me, all committed to making the venue the best it can be to deliver the best day out for every visitor, both equine and human.
Well done to Racing Welfare, a fantastic racing charity for their ongoing support to all racing staff. We’re thrilled to have you with us today and be supporting you this week.

Star Ratings Explained
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
HHHHH Selected to win the race
HHHHI Good chance of being placed.
HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions.
A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances). The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in nonhandicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

Endowed won over C&D last week in a race that was run to suit and despite not being ideally drawn in stall 1, he could still be well-treated under a penalty.

It’s a great way to enjoy a day out with brilliant memories and you can combine it with hospitality in a private suite or a meal in the restaurant. You can come down to the Parade Ring and choose the ‘Best Turned Out’ horse and also present a prize to the winning owner before enjoying a post-race glass of bubbly. The package also includes photographs of your day and a mention in the racecard and on the big screen. For more details, please email Candice Harper –charper@arenaracingcompany.co.uk
