The 5 day declarations for the 2013 Supreme Novices Hurdle are in and we have had tried to match declared runners with jockeys.
Ruby Walsh seems to be the man with a choice to make with most of the remaining entries looking to have fairly obvious pairings.
This is our unofficial guess at the Runners and Riders for the 2013 Supreme Novices Hurdle:

The Nicky Henderson trained My Tent or Yours jumped to the top of the Supreme Novices Hurdle betting with a comfortable victory in the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury. He has now been confirmed for the Supreme Novices by trainer Nicky Henderson. If you think he will win but dont fancy backing him at short odds an account with Racebets may be the solution. They are offering money back on day on the race win bets if My Tent or Yours wins….more details here.
Thanks to @JPNorris for this video of that win:
My Tent or Yours runs even though the second favourite, Jessica Harrington’s stable star Jezki,is in the same ownership. You can see Jezki landing his second Grade 1 at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting :
Willie Mullins has another live challenger in the Gigginstown owned Novice Un atout:
Oliver Sherwood’s Kennel Gate Hurdle winner Puffin Billy was easily turned over by Melodic Rendezvous at Exeter in February but a foot injury showed up post-race.
The Paul Nicholls trained Dodging Bullets has this race as an intended target and is a course winner. Ruby Walsh will probably be choosing between Dodging Bullets and Champagne Fever. His selection is sure to shorten.
River Maigue was second to Dodging Bullets in his first run of the season but won impressively at Kempton on King George Day and was the Pricewise Ante Post tip.
The Ladbroke Hurdle winner Cause of Causes also looks set to take its chance and was impressive on that day:
