The Leamington Novices' Hurdle was a Grade 2 National Hunt hurdle race in Great Britain which was open to horses aged five years or older. It was run at Warwick over a distance of about 2 miles and 5 furlongs (4,225 metres), and during its running there were eleven hurdles to be jumped. The race was for novice hurdlers, and took place each year in January. It was first run in 2002. From 2018 the race was sponsored by the Ballymore Group.

In April 2023 the British Horseracing Authority announced the removal of the race from the 2023/24 programme.[1]
