In depth
Verdict
Supreme Native has been a little unlucky so far and can get off the mark, now that he steps up in trip. Paul Nicholls charge has been expensive to follow having been sent off favourite on no less than four of his six outings, but this step up in trip should offset his lack of gears and he is taken to beat Totland Bay, who beat the reluctant Stafford King at Newton Abbot back in July. He has not been disgraced under his penalty since, but he lacks the scope of the selection.
