The William Hill Handicap Hurdle is a Premier Handicap National Hunt handicap hurdle race in England which is open to horses aged four years or older. It is run at Aintree over a distance of about 2 miles and 4 furlongs (4,023 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in April. The prize fund is £75,000.

The race was first run in 1989 and was awarded Grade 3 status in 2014. It was re-classified as a Premier Handicap from the 2023 running when Grade 3 status was renamed by the British Horseracing Authority.[1] It was sponsored by Oddbins from 1991 to 2002 and has had various sponsors since then.
