Snowden’s mare to wear it well in Mares’ Novice March 13, 2023 WITH one of the driest build-ups to a Cheltenham festival on record, it had been widely expected that this year’s meeting would take place on traditional decent watered spring ground.

Constitution will be running up that Hill clear of his rivals March 13, 2023 SOME horses are just different. They don’t come along often, but they have that special something that others don’t. Think of Frankel and Flightline on the Flat; Kauto Star and Sprinter Sacre over fences. CONSTITUTION HILL is undoubtedly the most exciting hurdler we have seen in a long time. I know he hasn’t won a [...]
Champion Hurdle favourite Constitution Hill hits the High Street March 13, 2023 HORSE racing needs superstars and in the form of Constitution Hill, the favourite for this year’s Champion Hurdle, many are hoping we have found one. Based on what we’ve seen so far, notably his 22-length demolition job in last year’s Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, Nicky Henderson’s unbeaten six-year-old looks the real deal and he could easily [...]
