Sweet Wake needs a proper race

SWEET WAKE, two from two over flights, is now the clear favourite for the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham.

But you would have to wonder if the lofty position owes as much to the manner of his victories, and a fair bit of over-hyping, as to anything the form book tells us.

Of course Sweet Wake may well be a champion in the making and there’s no doubt is very highly regarded by Noel Meade and Paul Carberry.
