The River Don Novices' Hurdle is a Grade 2 National Hunt hurdle race in Great Britain which is open to horses aged four years or older.

The race is for novice hurdlers, and it is scheduled to take place each year in late January or early February.

The event is named after the River Don which runs through Doncaster. Prior to 2002 the distance of the race was 2 miles and 4 furlongs (4,023 metres), and there were ten hurdles to jump. The race has been sponsored since 2007 by the Albert Bartlett vegetable growing company,
