The Summit Juvenile Hurdle is a Listed National Hunt hurdle race in Great Britain which is open to horses aged three years. It is run at Doncaster over a distance of about 2 miles and half a furlong (2 miles and 128 yards or 3,336 metres), and during its running there are eight hurdles to be jumped. The race is for novice hurdlers, and it is scheduled to take place each year in December.
Prior to 2010 it was run at Lingfield Park on the same day as the December Novices' Chase and the two races are now run on the same day at Doncaster. The race carried Grade 2 status until the 2021 running. It was downgraded to a Listed race by the British Horseracing Authority in 2022.[1]
In April 2023 the British Horseracing Authority announced that the race would be moved to Aintree and run 1 week earlier as part of a restructure of the 2023/24 programme.[2]
