Currently, the only simple solution is to use an extension.

Before Chrome version 33, released 20th February 2014, this solution was possible:

  • Enter chrome://flags/ into the address bar
  • Search for 'Enable Instant Extended API'
  • Set it to Disabled
  • Restart Chrome

You may have to click on the 'x' on the right of each cached thumbnail to get rid of it.

At the time of writing, September 2013 this worked.

There's an extension called Empty New Tab Page. Does exactly what it says on the tin.

To remove any of the 8 most visited sites, hover your mouse cursor over the 'thumbnail' until a X appears at the top right hand corner. Click that. However your next most visited site will replace it.

Most how-tos only provide a solution to clear your most visited pages, not how to disable it. Both methods are easy: below:

How to Clear Google Chrome’s “Most Visited” Landing Page (until you start browsing again)

All you have to do is clear your browsing history. Click the Chrome icon on in the top-right corner of your browser, select “History”, then “Clear All Browsing Data.” Done.

How to Disable Google Chrome’s “Most Visited” Landing Page (until you want it back)

Grab the Chrome extension New Tab Redirect. Install it, enable it, and then select ”Options.” Now, you can either create a custom launch URL or you can simply enter “about:blank” as the URL to have new tabs/windows load a blank page.

Long-Click on the right side of the thumbnail (do not release the mouse button) until a little 'X' is shown in the top right corner of the thumbnail. Release the mouse button and click on the 'X'. Done.
