JACK RICHARDS NOVICES’ CHASE

The Jack Richards Novices’ Chase is a new Festival race, to be run for the first time in 2025.

It is a Limited Novice Handicap Chase, which replaces the Grade 1 Turners (Golden Miller) Novices’ Chase run over the same distance. 

Grade 2 | 5yo+ | Friday 14.00
2 miles, 4 furlongs | 17 fences | New Course
Weight: handicap
Prize money: £125,000 (2025)

The change resurrects a novice handicap chase at the Festival, following the Centenary Novices' Handicap Chase (2005-2020).
