Chepstow Racecourse is a thoroughbred horse racing venue located just outside the town of Chepstow in Monmouthshire, Wales, near the southern end of the Wye Valley which forms the border with England. The racecourse was opened on August 6, 1926 in the grounds of Piercefield House. The first race was a two-year-old seller won by Lord Harewood's colt Conca D'Oro, the 7-4 favourite.
It is one of three racecourses in Wales, the others being at Bangor-on-Dee and at Ffos Las in Carmarthenshire, opened in 2009.
