The Oaksey Chase is a Grade 2 National Hunt chase in England which is open to horses aged five years or older. It is run at Sandown Park over a distance of 2 miles and 7 furlongs (4,626 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in April.

The race was first run in 2014 as a Listed race, and was raised to Grade 2 status in 2016. The title commemorates John Oaksey (1929 - 2012), an amateur jockey and journalist who rode the winner of the 1958 Whitbread Gold Cup at Sandown Park.
