Mydaddypaddy

J: Harry Skelton T: D Skelton
Race Winner
15/2

Reason for Tip

Mydaddypaddy comes into the Supreme with a progressive novice profile and figures that place him firmly in the top tier of this year’s field. His most recent run produced a career-best rating, achieved off a strong pace, and his closing sectionals suggested there is still more to come. He travels comfortably through his races — a key asset in the typically frenetic early fractions of the Supreme — and his hurdling technique has been efficient under pressure. With a proven turn of foot and the ability to quicken from the last, he brings the blend of pace and composure required for this championship opener.

Saratoga

J: Mark Walsh T: P Roche
Race Winner
15/2

Reason for Tip

Saratoga arrives with competitive juvenile handicap form and a rating that looks workable relative to recent performances. His latest run showed improved jumping fluency and he shaped as though a stronger gallop would suit. Juvenile handicaps at this meeting are often decided by tactical speed and the ability to travel comfortably in large fields — two traits he has demonstrated. On comparative ratings with others in the mid-130s bracket, he has the scope to outperform his mark and makes each-way appeal in an open renewal.

Iroko

J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr. T: O Greenall & J Guerriero
Race Winner
13/2

Reason for Tip

Iroko has long shaped as a chaser of serious potential and his recent figures confirm he is operating at a level consistent with past Ultima winners. His latest effort produced one of the stronger staying chase ratings in the field, and he has shown he can travel smoothly before staying on powerfully from three out. His jumping has improved with experience, maintaining rhythm even when pressure builds. The current handicap mark still looks fair relative to his novice hurdle peak, and with proven stamina at this trip, he profiles as a leading contender in a race that rewards class as much as resilience.

Lossiemouth

J: Paul Townend T: W P Mullins
Race Winner
13/8

Reason for Tip

Lossiemouth brings elite-level form into this Champion Hurdle and has consistently produced ratings that set the standard in the division. Her latest Grade 1 performance confirmed her ability to travel strongly off championship pace and deliver a decisive turn of foot between the final two flights. Her hurdling efficiency under pressure remains a major asset, particularly in a race where small errors can be costly. On peak figures and proven course effectiveness, she holds one of the strongest profiles in the field and deserves favouritism on form.

Downmexicoway

J: Darragh O'Keeffe T: H De Bromhead
Race Winner
7/1

Reason for Tip

Downmexicoway enters this competitive handicap with solid recent chase figures and a mark that still allows for improvement. He has shown strong mid-race travelling speed and stays on effectively over intermediate trips. His jumping accuracy has been reliable, a crucial trait in large-field handicaps at this meeting. On ratings comparison, he sits in the same performance band as previous winners of this race and appears well suited by a strongly run contest. With scope for marginal improvement, he rates a solid each-way option.

Backmersackme

J: Donagh Meyler T: E Mullins
Race Winner
9/2

Reason for Tip

Backmersackme has produced progressive novice chase form this season and shaped as though extended trips would unlock further improvement. His recent runs suggest he stays well beyond three miles, travelling smoothly before grinding it out late — a key attribute in this stamina test. His jumping has been generally assured and he has posted ratings that put him firmly in contention off his current mark. In a race where endurance and accuracy are paramount, he profiles as a live each-way contender with upside if the pace becomes attritional.
