Alanna Homes Champion Novice Hurdle

The Alanna Homes Champion Novice Hurdle is a Grade 1 National Hunt hurdle race in Ireland which is open to horses aged four years or older.

It is run at Punchestown over a distance of about 2 miles and 4 furlongs (4,023 metres), and during its running there are twelve hurdles to be jumped.

The race is for novice hurdlers, and it is scheduled to take place each year during the Punchestown Festival in late April or early May.

Previous sponsors of the race have included Menolly Homes, Dunboyne Castle Hotel and Land Rover.

The field usually includes horses which ran previously in the Gallagher Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham, and the last to win both races was Ballyburn in 2024.
