The Eider Chase is National Hunt steeplechase in Great Britain . It is run at Newcastle Racecourse in February, over a distance of 4 miles and 1 furlong.
The race was first run in 1952 and is seen as a trial for the Grand National . Comply or Die won both races in 2008, however, the 2004 winner, Tyneandthyneagain , was later killed at Aintree. The 2011 race was run in extremely heavy ground, with only three horses completing the marathon.
