The Supreme Novices’ Hurdle is shaping up to be one of the hotly contested races on Day 1 of the Festival, with four horses being under 5/1 to win the opener.
Slade Steel has attracted considerable attention in the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle market over the weekend, with 19% of all Supreme Novices’ Hurdle bets over the weekend going on the six-year-old.
Henry de Bromhead’s horse can be backed at 5/1; however, there are number of bookmakers who have already cut his odds to 4/1. Slade Steel’s odds were as big as 7/1 yesterday with bet365.
The betting favourite Tullyhill has been the second most popular selection in the Supreme market, accounting for 15% of all bets over the weekend. He is 3/1 to win the Festival opener with the majority of bookmakers.
Oddschecker spokesperson Sam Eaton said: “The top four in the betting market are also the top four most popular with bettors. There’s a little bit more rain forecasted to fall before the opener, which may see Slade Steel move into favouritism.”
