The Cotswold Chase, currently known for sponsorship reasons as the BetBright Cup Chase, is a Grade 2 National Hunt chase in Great Britain which is open to horses aged five years or older. It is run on the New Course at Cheltenham over a distance of about 3 miles and 1½ furlongs (5,130 metres), and during its running there are twenty one fences to be jumped. The race is scheduled to take place each year in January.

The event serves as a trial for the Cheltenham Gold Cup, which takes place at the same venue in March. It is held during Festival Trials Day, which features several other trials for races at the Cheltenham Festival. The event is registered as the Cotswold Chase, but it is usually known by a sponsored title. The wine merchant Bibendum supported the race from 2010 to 2014, and its 2014 title promoted Argento, an Argentinian wine brand. [1] Since 2015 the race has been sponsored by the BetBright bookmaking firm.[2]
