Evacuation Procedures

If an incident occurs which is beyond our control, it is important that you are aware of how we intend to look after you in the event of an emergency.

As part of our Safety management, we have employed professionally trained and experienced stewards and you will see them at various points throughout the racecourse. In the event of a situation, which requires partial or full evacuation of the stands or racecourse, announcements will be broadcast and stewards will undertake the responsibility of ushering you to a place of safety; it is essential that you follow their instructions. Please take your immediate belongings with you and proceed out of the area quickly and calmly with the guidance of the stewards

The evacuation procedures have been carefully planned to lead you to a safe area Should it be necessary to evacuate the course itself, there will be two main options; firstly to return to your vehicles if safe to do so and leave via the main entrance

Secondly, should it not be safe to return to your vehicles, you will be requested to leave via emergency evacuation gates, onto the racecourse itself, where you will receive further instructions.

It may give you peace of mind if you pre plan and agree a meeting place, just in case you become separated from your party. The above is precautionary only and we trust that the procedures will never be required. However, in the event of an emergency, remember;

• Take your belongings with you.

• Under the directions of the stewards, proceed quickly and calmly to the safe area.

Glasses & Bottles

Broken glasses and bottles are dangerous. In the interests of safety and the comfort of others please do not carry drinks or food on to the steppings of the stand, or the areas adjacent to the parade ring or unsaddling enclosure. Our catering team can transfer your drink into a plastic glass if you wish Horse & Jockey Welfare

OFFICIAL

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.

BETTING WITH THE BOOKMAKERS

History of the Welsh

This year marks the 101st anniversary of the first Welsh Champion Hurdle. In 1921 it was a three mile handicap run at the Easter meeting of Cardiff’s racecourse in the northern suburb of Ely, with a prize of £500. The following year “some first class horses” turned out, according to the Western Mail, though its racing coverage was almost secondary to that of its ‘Woman Correspondent’, who filled a whole column describing what the elite ladies of South Wales society were wearing.

More than two columns were necessary in 1924 to report the names of prominent racegoers and the fashions, by which time to Mail had upgraded to a ‘Lady Correspondent’. The description of the actual racing was much shorter. Zarane, “probably the best hurdler in the country at the moment,” had to carry 12 stone 12 pounds in the big race, but he could not concede the weight to Kiwi, who was winning for the fourth time in a row.

Unfortunately, the economic depression and competition from the new Chepstow track in the second half of the 1920s led to the Welsh Champion Hurdle suffering a swift decline. Prize money dropped to £400 in its third year, and then £250 in 1928, which was not enough to justify the word “champion” in its title; it was renamed “the Welsh Hurdle Race”. By this time it was run over two and a quarter miles. Before long it was worth only £100 and then just £70 before disappearing from the calendar in 1935. The first post-war Welsh Grand National was run at Newport’s Caerleon course on Easter Monday 1948. The Welsh Champion Hurdle was revived seven weeks later, at its two-day Whitsun meeting, with a handsome £750 of prize money. Sadly, it was the briefest of comebacks, as that was the last ever Newport fixture. The Welsh National moved the following year to Chepstow, where the premier contest over the sticks was worth only £400 and called the Welsh Grand Annual Handicap Hurdle.

Glory and Fortune

elsh Champion Hurdle

John Hughes was a much-admired clerk of the course who in the late 1960s was determined to put Chepstow on the map. He succeeded in bringing in sponsors, thereby attracting regular TV coverage of its National Hunt meetings on Saturdays. One of his ploys was the resurrection of the Welsh Champion Hurdle. He realised there were few suitable races for top class hurdlers after they had run at the Cheltenham Festival. The triple Champion Hurdler Persian War won the inaugural contest in 1969, and a series of other great horses took the race in the next ten years Bula, Comedy Of Errors (twice), Lanzarote, Night Nurse (twice), Monksfield and Sea Pigeon. The standard slipped a little in the 1980s and by the 1990s it was generally a race for above average handicappers, though mention must be made of the Martin Pipe-trained Potentate. His nine course victories included three in this race from 1997-99. After the 2002 running the fixture list was revised, Chepstow lost its Easter meeting and the Welsh Champion Hurdle disappeared from the programme again.

The creation of the new course at Ffos Las sparked the fourth revival of the race in 2011. After some experimentation regarding its conditions, distance, and time of year it has settled in its current mid-October slot as a two mile handicap with a restricted weight range. Top class winners include Oscar Whisky, The New One and the Welsh-trained Silver Streak. The 2020 winner Sceau Royal has 16 career victories to his name. Last year’s winner Glory And Fortune is trying to take the race for the second year in a row, having won Europe’s richest two mile handicap over the sticks, Newbury’s Betfair Hurdle, in the meantime. Hopes are high that the Welsh Champion Hurdle can continue to attract horses of this calibre.
