Irish point-to-point winner Cosmic Connection made the perfect start to his career under rules when victorious in a Warwick novice hurdle last month and there should be more to come. Harry Cobden has been booked for the ride and he represents an in-form yard.
Donald McCain’s Supreme George has progressed well over fences and he completed a hat-trick at Catterick on New Year’s Day. Decent ground is key to his chances and he should appreciate the underfoot conditions. Second off this mark last time out, he can go one better here.
Blow Your Wad was very strong at the finish when staying on well to finish fourth in the Ultima at the Cheltenham Festival and has been put up 4lb as a result. This race looks significantly easier and a similar performance would make him very hard to beat.
Oliver Signy’s It’s Top was a more than respectable second behind Sober Glory on his first start over hurdles and he followed that up by winning with plenty in hand at Carlisle in February. Too bad to be true in a Uttoxeter handicap last time, the return to quicker ground will suit.
Gary Brown’s Groom De Cotte was a winner over hurdles at Fontwell in September 2024 and also scored with plenty in hand over fences at Huntingdon in March 2025. The 10-year-old perhaps isn’t the easiest to train but should be capable of making his presence felt here.

Chepstow is one of three racecourses in Wales, although it is located only a short drive from Bristol and Cheltenham, and features both Flat and National Hunt fixtures. As well as horse racing, in recent years it is known for playing host to concerts after racing.
Course: A similar course for both Flat and National Hunt, Chepstow is a left handed, undulating one mile seven furlong oval with a straight course of a mile. Unsurprisingly given Wales’s reputation for rain, going can be extreme and very difficult. The undulations are far more pronounced than at most other courses and can cause problems for galopping horses.
Draw Bias: For distances up to a mile, horses drawn in higher numbers (closer to the stands) have an advantage which is considered when selecting our Chepstow tips.
Feature Races: Chepstow races plays hosts to two especially notable races; the Welsh Grand National, held on the 27th of December, is run over three and a half miles and has been won by two future Cheltenham Festival Gold Cup winners – Synchronised and Native River. The Future Champions Finale Juvenile Hurdle for four year olds takes place at the same meeting, and is a rare Juvenile Grade One.
