CHEPSTOW CONFIGURATION: Left handed, undulating. Oval-shaped track, about two miles in extent, with a run-in of 5 furlongs. All races at up to a mile are run on the straight course. While not an out-and-out galloping course, owing to the pronounced undulations, the track puts the emphasis on stamina almost regardless of ground.

FAVOURITES: Chepstow is a punter-friendly racecourse and we have the receipts. Over the past 5  years winning favourites at the course show 145-378 for 38.36% so +5% above the national average. All 6 categories produce decent figures (albeit from a small sample), though best category for strike rate are 3yo winning favourites in non-handicaps showing 25-46 for 54% (-2.58). Note, all 3 categories (age-groups) of winning favourites in handicaps produce a profit to level stakes and score well above the national average of 29%, something very unusual in a Racecourse Template!

TRAINERS: Ralph Beckett's (18%) runners at Chepstow must always be respected and processed. He sends just one in MIAMI MEMORIES and at £32,000 one of his cheaper juvenile fillies. The trainer scores over 20% with first time start 2yos and 6-12 for 50% at Chepstow with this age group over the past 5 years. Rob Hornby rides.

JOCKEYS: Hollie Doyle (15%) is top jockey at Chepstow scoring 26% at the course. She has 4 runners in WEDGEWOOD 5.25, ASSESSMENT 7.00, MAYZ 8.30 & MARMALADE LADY 9.00.

Gina Mangan (10%) is second-top jockey at the course and rides Chepstow well when measured against her national average scoring 17-104 for 16% so +6% above. She has 5 rides including  WON'T STAND DOWN 5.25, SIENNA GOLD 6.00, ABLE KANE 7.00, KENSTONE 8.00 & DUCHESS 8.30.

William Cox (5%) also has 5 rides including HOWZAK 5.25, TIGGY WEBBER 6.00, LOOBY 6.30, SECRET STRENGTH 7.00 & VAPE 7.30. Hard to back a jockey with just a 5% strike rate but he is a different proposition at Chepstow scoring 13-101 for 13% (+30.96) so an 160% increase above his national average!

Billy Loughane (14%) is another jockey with 5 rides including VIOLET LOVE 6.00, ROSY AFFAIR 6.30, VAUNTED 7.30, CHILD OF LIR 8.30 & EXCEPTIONALITY 9.00

OWNERS: The Cross Racing Club (10%) are the top owners at the course and have a single entry in ROMANOVICH 8.30 trained by John O'Shea and ridden by Jack Doughty (7)
