Forecasts

Appreciate It (8/11), Metier (11/2), Ballyadam (6/1), Soaring Glory (10/1), Blue Lord (11/1), Irascible (25/1), Grumpy Charley (28/1), For Pleasure (40/1)

A smaller Supreme field than usual but still a cracking contest to kickstart the Festival. Both METIER and Appreciate It bring unbeaten hurdling records to the table and Harry Fry's useful ex-Flat winner is taken to edge out Willie Mullins' much-vaunted novice and go 4-4 in this sphere after his emphatic Tolworth victory. Betfair Hurdle scorer Soaring Glory appeals as the pick of the remainder.
