Cheltenham November Meeting GET TIPS

Kempton Races

Kempton Park Racecourse is one of the busiest tracks in the country, with all-weather action throughout the calendar and good-quality jump racing during the winter.

Its close proximity to London, with good rail and road links, means it attracts bumper crowds for its biggest days. Kempton’s premier race is the King George VI Chase, run on Boxing Day. Through the years it’s been won by some of the very best chasers in history, including Arkle, Desert Orchid and five-time winner Kauto Star.

Kempton Park Racecourse also features the country’s only right-handed all-weather track, which stages meetings once or twice a week.

Kempton Racing Tips

  • The all-weather polytrack course is extremely tight, with no straight, so horses in races over five or six furlongs must be able to lie up with the pace.
  • John Gosden and Andrew Balding are particularly shrewd in their placement of runners at Kempton races, while Oisin Murphy excels in the saddle here.
  • Leading jumps trainer Nicky Henderson makes no secret of his affection for Kempton Park races and he has an impressive strike rate from the runners he sends here, as does Paul Nicholls.
  • Their respective regular riders Nico de Boinville and Harry Cobden reap the benefit, while Sam Twiston-Davies has an admirable strike rate too.

The jockey's view

Bryony Frost
By Bryony Frost - Most successful female jump jockey in history

On the whole, Kempton Racecourse always has good ground. It’s very fast and horses from the front tend to win because of how fast the obstacles come at you. You go round a bend and they’re straight there, so up front they’re easier to navigate.

Then you’re up the home straight. There’s a small incline up to the line which rides stiffer than it looks. A well-balanced horse is brilliant here and if you get everything right and it can be a mega track to ride.

For hurdles, winners come from anywhere. You have some time before the home straight but a horse has to have a lot of boot about him to gain those positions and then tuck in before the bend. When you get it right Kempton is phenomenal, but get anything wrong and it can be so hard to claw back.
