The Kennel Gate Novices Hurdle was a Grade 2 National Hunt hurdle race in Britain. It was run at Ascot a distance of about 2 miles (1 mile 7 furlongs and 152 yards, or 3,156 metres), and during its running there were eight hurdles to be jumped. The race took place each year in early December. It was most recently sponsored by Sky Bet and run as the Sky Bet Supreme Trial Novices' Hurdle.
In April 2023 the British Horseracing Authority announced the removal of the Kennel Gate from the 2023/24 programme.[1]
