Old Park Star powered his way to the forefront of the Sky Bet Supreme Novices’ Hurdle betting after a breathtaking performance at Haydock on January 17.

The Festival opener’s sponsors reacted swiftly, trimming Nicky Henderson’s six-year-old into 11-4 from 7-1 following a commanding success in the Grade Two Rossington Main, where he brushed aside capable opposition with striking authority.
Henderson, already familiar with success in this sphere through Jonbon and Jeriko Du Reponet, appears to have unearthed another top-class novice. In the lineage of Altior and Shishkin, Old Park Star possesses both the physique and athleticism to suggest fences will one day be well within his compass.
Nico de Boinville, registering his first winner since returning from injury, was positive from flagfall, sending his mount into an early rhythm at the head of affairs. Hurricane Pat, a smart performer in his own right, attempted to track him, but as they turned for home the writing was already on the wall. The 4-5 favourite quickened decisively and, though eased close to the line, still crossed with 18 lengths in hand.
“He was so professional. If anything was going to beat him it was going to be the track today and that is why his turn of foot was so devastating really,” said De Boinville.
“I couldn’t ask for anything more, I’m delighted with the horse and he’s got such a massive future ahead of him.
“He’s so straightforward, he knows exactly where his feet are but I wanted to give him a race at the same time as it’s six weeks to the Festival.
“It was the plan to load it up as much as we could and then see what we had, but he stays so well. I was worried about the track, but I’ve no worries now.”
He added: “Not many win like that, so I’m delighted, and ground doesn’t seem to bother him. I really like this horse.”
Dan Skelton looks to have further big-race ammunition on his hands after Mydaddypaddy justified the lofty talk surrounding him with a commanding success at Carlisle on November 10.

The four-year-old had already marked himself out when bolting up in a Huntingdon bumper back in March, and he arrived in Cumbria prominent in the early betting for the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle. Anyone invested in that view was scarcely made to sweat.
With Harry Skelton taking the reins in the first division of the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme Saves Lives Maiden Hurdle, the Walk In The Park gelding delivered a neat, assured round of jumping and was barely asked to stretch on the climb to the line, seeing off the dual bumper winner Harbour Island by four and a half lengths.
Barry Connell believes Eachtotheirown could be an underestimated player.
The County Kildare trainer is no stranger to making his mark in the Festival opener, despite limited representation over the years. Marine Nationale provided a memorable success three seasons ago, while William Munny chased home Kopek Des Bordes when best of the rest in last year’s renewal.
Eachtotheirown has hinted at plenty of ability himself. A smooth victory on his hurdling debut marked him down as one to note, and although things went awry in the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse, he quickly got back on track with an emphatic handicap success at Thurles in January.
The Supreme represents a significant rise in class and the bookmakers are taking no chances, with Ladbrokes offering him at 66-1, but Connell is quietly confident his charge can perform well above those odds.
“He won his maiden hurdle in Galway and then we thought he was a certainty in the Royal Bond, but in November for whatever reason we just had three or four weeks when the horses weren’t running well and he ran a shocker,” he said.
“The handicapper gave him a mark of 124, so we went to Thurles two weeks ago and won by nine lengths and went up 13lb, so he’s rated 137 now, but I think he’s definitely capable of running significantly higher than that.
“He’ll be a big price for the Supreme, but I think he’ll definitely be competitive. It looks a strong Supreme this year, but I hope he’ll be able to finish in the first five or six and maybe a bit better.”
