The Worcester Novices' Chase is a Grade 2 National Hunt chase in Great Britain which is open to horses aged four years or older. It is run at Newbury over a distance of about 3 miles (4,828 metres), and during its running there are eighteen fences to be jumped. The race is for novice chasers, and it is scheduled to take place each year in late November or early December.

The race was first run in 1990 and was formerly held at Worcester, where it was contested over distances of up to 2 miles and 7½ furlongs. It was transferred to Newbury and extended to its present length in 2000.
