corrida com obstáculos
Eis a forma corrente no Brasil.
No atletismo temos:
flat races = rasos
hurdles races = com barreiras
steeplechase = com obstáculos
No equestrianismo temos:
flat races = corridas sem obstáculos
steeplechase = com obstáculos
Segundo Oxford, a palavra "steeplechase" vem da combinação de "steeple" (uma torre alta, por exemplo de igreja, que antigamente marcava o final destas corridas) e "chase" (perseguir ou buscar).
