A Guide To Chepstow Race Course
Chepstow racecourse opened for business in 1925 and since 1949 has been the home of the Welsh Grand National which runs every December. It is predominantly known as a Jumps course, although it does also hold Flat Racing meetings.
The course is a rough undulating oval circuit with an external spur marking the start point for all races. This spur is on a decline until it meets the main oval. The finishing straight is a massive 5 furlongs long. The layout of the course also allows for a straight mile course.
