The Dorans Pride Novice Hurdle is a Grade 2 National Hunt novice hurdle in Ireland which is open to horses aged four years or older.

It is run at Limerick over a distance of 3 miles (4,828 metres) and during its running there are 14 flights of hurdles to be jumped. It is scheduled to take place each year in late December.

The race was first run in 2003 and is named as a tribute to Dorans Pride a top class staying hurdler and chaser trained by Michael Hourigan. It was upgraded from Grade 3 to Grade 2 in 2015 having been won by Faugheen and Martello Tower in the previous two renewals.[1] The 2016 and 2017 runnings were sponsored by Guinness and run as the Guinness Novice Hurdle. In 2018 it was sponsored by Sky Sports and since 2019 the sponsor has been Lyons of Limerick.
