Better known as the Fred Winter Hurdle, the race is for four-year-old novice hurdlers only.
This race was made for those who couldn’t get into the Triumph Hurdle, the Grade One event for four-year-olds, but over the years, we’ve seen some very talented future Grade One horses come out of this contest, the level has certainly been raised recently.
