Uttoxeter Racecourse Events & Fixtures

Uttoxeter races today

Uttoxeter races today owe their existence to the closure of Keele Park Racecourse in the early Twentieth Century. That led to the licence transferring from that other Staffordshire horse racing track, some 20 miles to the west, in 1907. The Midlands Grand National, one of the most important and gruelling races at Uttoxeter today, was established over half-a-century later in 1969.

Always contested over four miles plus, the feature staying handicap chase of all Uttoxeter Racecourse events has produced winners of the Grand National at Aintree races, although not for some time now. Rag Trade won the Midlands Grand National in 1975, then went on to glory in the world’s most famous steeplechase the following year. Lord Gyllene was second at Uttoxeter in 1997 but went one better on Merseyside.

In more recent years, Synchronised – successful here in 2010 – tasted Cheltenham Gold Cup glory in 2012, also enjoying victories in the Welsh Grand National and Lexus Chase over in Ireland in-between. Uttoxeter races today maybe aren’t quite so fashionable but there is another valuable handicap chase at the course in the Summer Cup.

Now a mile or so shorter in distance than the Midlands Grand National, this three-and-a-quarter-mile event at the end of June or start of July started life as the Summer National when inaugurated in 2000. It has twice been reduced in length since, settling on its current trip from 2012 onwards.

The Clarke Chase, honouring former Uttoxeter Racecourse benefactor and local man Sir Stanley Clarke, is one of the notable shorter distance races held on this race track over two-and-a-half miles in May. This is also a handicap, ensuring the course’s legacy as a venue for that type of event instead of conditions contests.

Configuration of Uttoxeter Races Today

Ever since its opening, Uttoxeter has only hosted National Hunt horse racing meetings. A left-handed track with some undulations, a complete circuit of the course is an extended mile-and-a-quarter or 10.5 furlongs in circumference. The relatively sharp nature of a full lap means hurdle races over the minimum distance of two miles have a separate starting chute attached to the home straight with one flight to jump before joining the round course.

After turning for home in Uttoxeter races today, horses have a half-a-mile to the winning post. There are three hurdles to jump on this part of the track and two in the back straight. Despite its left-handed configuration, Uttoxeter has a dog-leg right-handed turn down the back as horses climb Clump Hill, then come back down as they take the home bend. As National Hunt tracks go, it’s one of the most unique.

There are eight fences on a complete circuit of Uttoxeter Racecourse in a steeplechase. Four of those are in the back straight and four more after turning for home. The second of those is the only open ditch on the track. In the Midlands Grand National, horses pass the winning post four times and have three complete circuits of the course.

Midlands Grand National Premier Raceday

On the Saturday straight after the Cheltenham Festival, attention switches to the races at Uttoxeter on the Midlands Grand National card. This is a designated Premier Raceday now with a Class 2 staying handicap hurdle, novices’ handicap chase and a bumper supporting the feature Premier Handicap. This is everything happening at the tack on this date in the middle of March:

Our 2024 Midlands Grand National Tips

Sat, 16 Mar 2024 , 15:00 GMT • Uttoxeter • National Hunt

Ask Me Early E/W

Guetapan Collonges E/W

Iron Bridge E/W

My Silver Lining E/W

Ask Me Early E/W, Midlands Grand National, Uttoxeter (16 March, 3:00)

Off the same winning mark as his 3m novices’ handicap chase at this very meeting three years ago, Ask Me Early appeals each way for the 4m 2f Midlands Grand National at Uttoxeter. Trained by Harry Fry, this lightly-raced 10-year-old grey gelding by Ask likes testing ground and scored on his latest outing.

Ask Me Early bounced back to form in first-time cheekpieces in a veterans’ race around Exeter. Up 7lb for a nine-length victory, he may still be well-handicapped on his course form. Back in fourth here in 2021 was Flegmatik, who has twice placed in the Coral Trophy around Kempton Park.

That one also beat subsequent Ultima Handicap Chase hero Chianti Classico there in January. As the ill-fated Classic Chase victor Eclair Surf was also down the field here three years ago, this piece of form worked out pretty well. Ask Me Early looks overpriced at double figure odds with Jonny Burke again taking the ride.

Guetapan Collonges Can Go Well Here Again

Last year’s fourth Guetapan Collonges is only 3lb higher than 12 months ago and has been pretty consistent both at this venue and in the current campaign. Trained by Charlie Longsdon at JP McManus, the eight-year-old son of Saddler Maker scored at Carlisle on reappearance.

Guetapan Collonges was then a fine third in a Cheltenham Premier Handicap off 1lb higher than his current mark. The sixth and seventh home have both won since. He also kept on into the same spot in the Classic Chase behind re-opposing rival My Silver Lining, but off 10lb better terms. Guetapan Collonges could well reverse form, then.

Iron Bridge Should Relish This Test

Welsh Grand National runner-up and Grand National Trial third Iron Bridge is obviously prominent in the betting after those placed efforts in other long-distance Premier Handicaps over the winter. Trained by Jonjo O’Neill, this eight-year-old Milan gelding is off the same mark from Haydock but 2lb lower than Chepstow.

Off 4lb better terms with My Silver Lining from their Merseyside meeting the last day, Iron Bridge will definitely appreciate going over this extreme distance. He should be there or thereabouts with no obvious handicap blots like Nassalam or Yeah Man in this. The yard has won this twice before and may well do so for a third time.

My Silver Lining Completes Shortlist

Emma Lavelle’s aforementioned My Silver Lining landed the Classic Chase around Warwick in January, Although b9lb higher in the weights now, this eight-year-old Cloudings mare is bred for this test. She was far from disgraced when rallying into second place in the official Grand National Trial at Haydock off 127 the last day.

Up 4lb on that runner-up effort, My Silver Lining seems versatile as regards ground. What she needs is a test of stamina, and there is only one race in the British Isles offering a greater examination than this. After being so consistent over the last 12 months with three wins and as manty seconds, My Silver Lining has to be on any shortlist for the Midlands Grand National.
