footer}} The '''Becher Chase''' is a Premier Handicap National Hunt steeplechase in Great Britain which is open to horses aged six years or older. It is run at Aintree over a distance of about 3 miles and 2 furlongs (3 miles 1 furlong and 188 yards, or 5,201 metres), and during its running there are twenty-one fences to be jumped. It is a handicap race, and it is scheduled to take place each year in November or December.

It is run over the same fences as Aintree's most famous race, the Grand National, and it serves as an early-season trial for that event. Two winners have gone on to win the Grand National; Amberleigh House and Silver Birch. Earth Summit won the race in 1998 following his Grand National win the previous April.

One of the obstacles jumped is Becher's Brook, which is named in memory of Martin Becher (1799–1864). The Becher Chase was established in 1992, when a new race meeting was introduced at Aintree. For the twenty years prior to this, the Grand National meeting had been the venue's only horse racing fixture of the year. The Becher Chase was upgraded to Grade Three by the British Horseracing Board (BHA) from its 2014 running<ref>{{cite web|title=British Horseracing Authority Announces Upgrades to Jump Pattern Races for 2013/14|url=http://www.britishhorseracing.presscentre.com/Press-Releases/British-Horseracing-Authority-Announces-Upgrades-to-Jump-Pattern-Races-for-2013-14-3fe.aspx|accessdate=28 August 2013|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130802034529/http://www.britishhorseracing.presscentre.com/Press-Releases/British-Horseracing-Authority-Announces-Upgrades-to-Jump-Pattern-Races-for-2013-14-3fe.aspx|archivedate=2 August 2013|df=dmy-all}}</ref> and was re-classified as a Premier Handicap from the 2022 running when Grade 3 status was renamed by the BHA.<ref>{{cite web |title=Jump Pattern Committee update 22/23 season |url=https://www.britishhorseracing.com/press_releases/jump-pattern-committee-update-22-23-season/ |publisher=British Horseracing Authority |access-date=12 August 2022}}</ref>
