Horse Racing - Clarence House Chase

A two miles and one furlong chase held each January at Ascot, the Clarence House was originally a two mile handicap event until 2007. It has been sponsored by Victor Chandler throughout its history. It was abandoned due to frost and then fog in its first two years. In 2007 it was promoted to Grade 1 status and the distance was extended by a furlong, and it ceased to be run as a handicap. In 2013 the race was staged at Cheltenham after the Ascot meeting was called off due to bad weather.
