33 in for Supreme Novices

Darlan is among 33 six-day entries for the William Hill Supreme Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham.

Nicky Henderson's charge is clear favourite for the race as he looks to give Tony McCoy a flying start to the Festival.

Steps To Freedom and Galileo's Choice form part of a strong Irish challenge while Cinders And Ashes is a leading player for Donald McCain.

Midnight Game, Montbazon, Trifolium, Colour Squadron and Tetlami are others towards the head of the betting while four-year-old Hinterland is an interesting entry for Paul Nicholls.
