Just whisper this if you’re in the Kopek Des Bordes camp, but Willie Mullins comes into the Supreme Novices Hurdle of 2025 with just two victories in the Cheltenham Festival opener during the last decade.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When your Closutton stable has half of the dozen-strong field, however, you do give yourself plenty of chances. The home team has all but surrendered supremacy in the Supreme with just two flying the British flag this year.<\/p>\n

It’s fair to say that bookmakers and Cheltenham betting sites<\/a> aren’t exactly warm on the UK runners either. No, the one who laid a major marker down was Kopek Des Bordes when running away with a Dublin Racing Festival Grade 1 success last month.<\/p>\n
