Hurst Park Novices' Chase
The Hurst Park Novices' Chase was a National Hunt novice chase in England. It was run at Ascot over a distance of 2 miles (3,218 metres), and it was scheduled to take place each year in November.
The race was first run in 1965 and was run for the last time in 1987. It usually attracted a good quality field but the number of runners was consistently low (total of 50 in last ten runnings).
