Sky Bet Supreme Novices' Hurdle (Grade 1) (GBB Race)
In a week where he is chasing down 100 Festival winners, trainer Willie Mullins can get off to the best possible start with the unbeaten five-year-old MYSTICAL POWER. Bred in the purple being a son of Galileo out of Champion Hurdle winning mare Annie Power, the way he put distance between himself and his rivals in the Moscow Flyer at Punchestown in January was impressive and there should be plenty more improvement to come. Stablemate Tullyhill has improved with each start this season and his most recent display at Punchestown was of a high standard, though he will need to brush up on his jumping if he is to be seriously involved at the finish. A major disappointment in the Lawlor's Of Naas Hurdle over further last time, Firefox is expected to be much more at home over this trip and the form of his Fairyhouse success over Ballyburn in December looks very strong. The same can be said of Slade Steel, who was runner-up to that same rival at the Dublin Racing Festival but he may be better over further. A trainer that needs no introduction when it comes to this contest, Nicky Henderson is represented by the talented Jeriko Du Reponet, who may have a bit to find in terms of form but should be well suited by the fast-run nature of this contest.

The Supreme Novices’ Hurdle is the traditional curtain raiser to the week. Run over two miles and 87 yards of the old course with eight hurdles to be jumped. It takes place on day one of the Festival on Tuesday with the winning prize money being around £76,000.
As the opener of the whole meeting, the start is traditionally greeted by the ‘Cheltenham Roar’ as the crowd cheers at the beginning of the week’s racing.
Supreme Novices’ Hurdle Betting Trends and Statistics
The leading trainer in the race is Willie Mullins, who has won the race seven times whilst Nicky Henderson has won it five times.
The now-retired Ruby Walsh is the leading jockey in the race having won it five times during his career.
This race is often won by one of the leading novice hurdlers from either the UK or Ireland with Ireland holding the call over the UK this century with thirteen winners to ten.
The winner will be deemed to be the best two-mile novice hurdler around and will be back the following year normally to challenge for the Champion Hurdle.
Supreme Novices’ Hurdle History
The race was originally called the Gloucestershire Hurdle and was split into two or even three divisions. Its current format began in 1972. The event has had several sponsors over the years including Lloyds Bank and Waterford Crystal with the current sponsor being Sky Bet.
Some of the noteworthy winners throughout the years include Golden Cygnet (1978), Brave Inca (2004), Vautour (2014), Douvan (2015), Altior (2016), Shishkin (2020) and Constitution Hill (2022). Last year’s contest was won by Marine Nationale.
