Superstar hurdler Constitution Hill is unlikely to be seen on a racetrack until March after Nicky Henderson indicated he would take a direct route to Cheltenham with Unibet Champion Hurdle favourite.
After he posted a 17 length victory in the Christmas Hurdle on Boxing Day, a number of options were on the table for Constitution Hill but his trainer has now said, “I think almost certainly Constitution Hill will not run again before Cheltenham.”
Constitution Hill is five out of five over hurdles, winning his races with such dominance that he is 1-5 with William Hill to land the Champion Hurdle.
