We kicked off 2023 in style.
We welcomed in the New Year with a brilliant eight-race card headlined by the Listed Bagot Handicap (2800m) and the Listed Chester Manifold Stakes (1400m).
The time-honoured Bagot Handicap attracts the country’s best off-season stayers ahead of bigger autumn targets. Last year’s edition was taken out by Tigertiger, ridden by Daniel Moor for Rob Blacker’s stable. The Chester Manifold Stakes is named in honour of former VRC Chairman Sir Chester Manifold and is run over 1400m. The Clinton McDonald-trained Never Again saluted last year ridden by Michael Walker.
