Chepstow Racecard - Wednesday 2nd November

Abandonment Refund Admissions

If Racing is abandoned before the first race then a full refund or a transfer to another similar race meeting will be offered. If racing is abandoned before the 4th race then we will offer a 50% refund (this excludes Music Live race meetings, please see separate policy.) If racing is abandoned after the 4th race, then no refund will be offered (this excludes Music Live race meetings, please see separate policy.)

In the event a Music Live act cancels their performance, the Racecourse will seek to secure a replacement act to ensure music after racing is provided

In the event a Music Live act cannot be replaced, a partial refund will be issued dependent on the face value of the race day ticket. Chepstow Racecourse will provide customers with details of the value of the refund.

Parade Ring

This is an ideal opportunity for racegoers to see the horses close up and assess their attitude and fitness The horses begin to parade 15-20 minutes before their race, and this is a great chance to pick your horse.

Placing a Bet

The Racecourse Betting shop is situated in the Grandstand & Paddock enclosure. The bookmakers are located in the betting ring in front of the main Grandstand.

The Weighing Room

This is located opposite the Winning Post and all jockeys weigh out here before each race. Their weight, including their saddle, should corr with the weight shown in today’s racecard particular horse in that particular race. Once race is finished, the jockeys will weigh in and weight must be the same as when they started.

On racedays, four stewards ensure each race according to Jockey Club rules and regulations.

Winners Enclosure

After each race, the first four placed horses led into the Winners Enclosure where they ar unsaddled and the jockeys take the saddle weigh in. There are presentations by race sponsors to the connections of the winning on the winner’s podium.

Unauthorised Bookmaking

It is a condition of entry to this Racecourse that only individuals in possession of a valid betting badge and occupying an authorised pitch are entitled to lay bets on the course of their business. Any individual found contravening these conditions will be evicted.

You will be guided by members of the racecourse staff to specific assembly points, determined by which area you are in.

OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED

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.

be

a

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

RACE SUMMARY

MY BAD LUCY quickly goes over fences on his return and doesn’t look overfaced Staying chases were always going to be his bag and he’s worth chancing Easy Bucks remains in good form and is a big player for his local yard. San Agustin is another to consider.

ERNEST GRAY is a bright hurdles prospect based on the useful level he achieved in bumpers and representing a yard in good form he is the most persuasive option on reappearance. Ice Coast sets a solid standard on his French form, with Liberty Hunter another to note tackling obstacles for the first time

RACE SUMMARY

TAHMURAS made a very bright start in bumpers last term, confirming the promise of his Ffos Las debut second when going one place better at Wincanton in March and, every inch the type to make his mark over hurdles, he earns the vote to make it first time lucky in this sphere. That said, similar comments apply to Pembroke and he’s a lead threat, ahead of expensive point recruit Out of Office Sergeant Wilson is also of interest if proving his latest Bangor display a blip

RACE SUMMARY

KNOWSLEY ROAD built on his debut promise when making all in a course bumper in March and looks a bright hurdling prospect for his top yard on that evidence, so he’s given the vote to come out on top. Hurricane Highway and Time For A Pint are a couple of interesting Rules newcomers having been successful in the Irish pointing field and require a close look in the betting

RACE SUMMARY

A tricky contest to unravel despite the small field but preference is for CALICO, who found only one too strong returning from 7 months off at Cheltenham recently, and with that outing sure to have blown away any cobwebs, Dan Skelton’s charge can open his account over fences with the yard amongst the winners. Triple Trade rates an exciting chasing prospect so he’s feared most on reappearance, with Datsalrightgino rounding off the shortlist

STATS

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): P Nicholls (55 wins from 200 runners, 28%) runs ISAAC DES OBEAUX TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): F O’Brien (10 wins from 60 runners, 17%) runs DIRK GENTLY FANCY THAT: P Nicholls won this race in 2018 and 2020. The stable runs ISAAC DES OBEAUX today.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: HE KNOWS BETTER trained by H Whittington, Sparsholt, 98 miles.

The Paul Nicholls stable has made an excellent start to the season in bumpers and his newcomer ISAAC DES OBEAUX makes plenty of appeal on paper, so he gets the marginal vote over point-winner Doyen For Money, who should be ready to go. Genovese is another one to consider.
