    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    On the 2 market leaders can anyone tell me the last winner of the Supreme to run in a bumper and not win one? S Nicholls only had 9 bumper winners last year and only has 1 so far this year, is it possible he's just not pushing the horses hard at a young age? Anyway back to my main point...

    Geraghty Form

    Really feel like he is riding brutally at the minute and can only win where the horse is undoubtedly the best horse in the race. He is 5/20 the last 2 weeks but all have been even money or shorter (1/16, 3/10, 8/15, 5/6, Evns) and one of those wins he was handed the race due to Ainchea falling...
