The Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, the race that provided Michael O’Sullivan with his greatest moment in the saddle, will be run in his memory at next month’s Cheltenham Festival.
The Cork jockey partnered Marine Nationale to victory in the Festival curtain-raiser in 2023 and the 2025 renewal will be staged as the Michael O’Sullivan Supreme Novices’ Hurdle.
