The Gaskells Waste Management Handicap Hurdle is a Grade 3 National Hunt hurdle race in Great Britain which is open to horses aged four years or older. It is run at Aintree over a distance of about 3 miles and 110 yards (4,929 metres), and during its running there are thirteen hurdles to be jumped. It is a handicap race, and it is scheduled to take place each year in early April.

The race was promoted from Listed to Grade 3 status in 2010. In 2014 the race was run as the Dominican Republic Handicap Hurdle and in 2015 it carried the name of the Injured Jockeys Fund.

The race was first run in 1985 as the Oddbins Handicap Hurdle, but this name was switched to the 2 miles 4 furlong race (now known as the Alder Hey Children's Charity Handicap Hurdle) in 1992.
