Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase

The Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase is a national hunt race run on the cross country course at the Cheltenham Festival.

The race is run over a distance of around 3 miles 6 furlongs, jumping a combination of natural and man made obstacles, which include hedges, ditches, banks, water obstacles and timber rails.

The Cross Country Chase was first run in 2005 when the Cheltenham Festival was increased to a 4 day meeting. At that time it was run as a handicap, but was changed to a conditions race in 2016, so now all horses run off the same weight.
