Hi, Just use your standard double. If I remember correctly, and it's been a few years, horn 1 is in G all the way. But I could be wrong.
Either way, I don't remember the Bb parts being that high anyways. The only reason there is four horns is because of the minor key; you need a pair of natural horns in Bb so the mediant of a G minor chord is an open tone on a Bb horn. In the trio, the G horns and the Bb horns trade off in the melodic line for this very reason.
