A Guide to Ffos Las Race Course
Overview
Built on the site of a Welsh open plan mine, Ffos Las opened in 2009 and is one of three Welsh racetrack venues alongside Bangor and Chepsow. Ffos Las is named after the farm that was on the site of the mine.
The track is a dual purpose one that plays host to both National Hunt racing in the Winter months and Flat racing during the rest of the year. The most valuable race at Ffos Las is the Welsh Champion Hurdle which was moved from Chepstow in 2001. That race is run over 2 miles and is open to horses aged 4 and over.
Ffos Las is a flat left handed course set in a tight oval wich is 12 furlongs in length with 9 fences to negotiate. It has an additional spur at either end of the oval to facilitate shorter sprint races
