Simply Supreme was so impressive when winning at Kelso he is taken to score again. The gelding by Supreme Leader was always up with the pace on that occasion and despite being slightly novice at his hurdles he won in the style of a horse with a big future and he is the TEAMtalk selection. Longterm rates the main danger he won a bumper at Exeter in impressive style when defeating Priests Bridge who has since franked the form. If the gelding by Welsh Term shows an aptitude for hurdling he rates the main danger. Commanche Quest is the most experienced hurdler in the field and he has proved himself on the ground but he has appeared one paced in the closing stages of his races and he may again be done for toe by a less exposed rival. Atlantic Crossing showed a modicum of ability in bumpers and has reportedly schooled well at home he could run well at a big price. Atticus Finch had Red Square Man behind him last time and he should be able to confirm that form. None of the remainder stand out on breeding and they may come on for the experience.
