Peter Marsh Chase

The Peter Marsh Chase is a Grade 2 National Hunt chase in Great Britain which is open to horses aged five years or older. It is run at Haydock Park over a distance of about 3 miles 1½ furlongs (3 miles 1 furlong and 125 yards, or 5,144 metres), and during its running there are nineteen fences to be jumped. It is a limited handicap race, and it is scheduled to take place each year in January. It was first run in 1981.

In April 2023 the British Horseracing Authority announced that the race would become a full weight-range Premier Handicap from the 2023/24 season.
