The Welsh National is a highlight in the festive season’s top-class jump racing schedule. The course’s challenging undulations demand significant stamina, especially on heavy ground. The 3m5f handicap chase is known for its rapid changes in fortune, making the Welsh National an exhilarating and unpredictable event. This fixture is Chepstow’s most prestigious day, featuring the Grade 1 Finale Junior Hurdle and the Grade 2 Championship Bumper as key supporting races.
Chepstow, easily accessible from major South Wales cities and across the Severn estuary, is not only one of the most demanding jumps tracks but also one of the most scenic. A unique feature is the close proximity racegoers have to the action, particularly as the Welsh National runners parade in front of the grandstands at the start.
