Cheltenham Festival News: Dysart Dynamo all go for Supreme as 17 confirmed
Dysart Dynamo could run at Punchestown on Sunday
17 runners stood their ground for a classic renewal of the Supreme Novices' Hurdle on March 15. Constitution Hill, Dysart Dynamo and Sir Gerhard look to go toe-to-toe at Cheltenham.
Willie Mullins' Dysart Dynamo looks likely to face off with Nicky Henderson's Constitution Hill as both were confirmed for the Supreme Novices' Hurdle on March 15.
Irish trainer Mullins also has the talented Sir Gerhard in the race but will not have to make a final decision until Sunday's 48-hour declaration stage.
Sir Gerhard, winner of the Champion Bumper last year, has won twice over hurdles, including a six-length success at the Dublin Racing Festival.
Dysart Dynamo won the Moscow Flyer Novice Hurdle last time out, a race with a good track record for forwarding the Supreme winner.
Mullins has also left in Kilcruit, second to Sir Gerhard in the Bumper last year, State Man, El Fabiolo, Bring On The Night, Farout and Grangee.
Nicky Henderson heads the British charge and has two huge chances with Constitution Hill and Jonbon and has stated for weeks it is his intention to run both.
Constitution Hill won the Tolworth Hurdle soundly on just his second run while Jonbon is unbeaten in a point-to-point, a bumper and three runs over hurdles.
He is bidding to carry on the work of his full brother Douvan, who won the race in 2015.
The general betting market is led by Constitution Hill, followed by Dysart Dyamo and Sir Gerhard in what looks a thrilling renewal.
