The ASW Handicap Chase was a National Hunt handicap chase in England which was open to horses aged five years and older.
It was run at Cheltenham over a distance of 4 miles and 1 furlong (6,637 metres), and was scheduled to take place each year on New Year's Day.
The race was first run in 1953 as the Fred Withington Handicap Chase, and was last run in 2004.
From 1975 the race was sponsored by Bass and then later by Food Brokers Ltd and Intasun.
From 1988 the race was known as the Miles Gosling Handicap, after a previous chairman of Cheltenham Racecourse who died in 1997, aged 69.
