Constitution Hill: Sensation with an Obstacle "A Lot of Happen Horses" This Season, Nicky Henderson Says Unbridled
Constitution Hill, the exciting novice hurdler trained by Nicky Henderson, has been making waves in the racing world this season. The six-year-old gelding has been impressing fans and experts alike with his exceptional performances, and his trainer is not surprised.
Speaking to the press, Henderson praised Constitution Hill, saying, "He’s a sensation, no question. He’s got a lot of happen horses this season, and he’s been unbridled in his performances. He’s got a fantastic attitude and a tremendous ability."
Constitution Hill has indeed been in top form this season, winning three of his four starts over hurdles. His most recent victory came in the Grade 1 Cheltenham Festival’s Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, where he dominated the field by a wide margin.
The gelding’s impressive display has sparked comparisons with some of the greatest novice hurdlers in recent memory. Henderson, however, is cautious not to get too carried away, saying, "We’re not getting ahead of ourselves. He’s still a young horse, and we need to make sure we keep him fresh and motivated. But he’s certainly got the potential to be a top-class performer."
One of the key factors behind Constitution Hill’s success is his exceptional jumping ability. He has a remarkable technique, clearing obstacles with ease and precision. His trainer attributes this to his breeding, saying, "He’s got a fantastic pedigree, and his jumping ability is no surprise. He’s got the bloodlines of some of the best jumpers in the business."
Constitution Hill’s rise to prominence has also been fueled by his versatility. He has shown the ability to adapt to different conditions and courses, making him a formidable opponent in a variety of races. Henderson believes that this versatility will serve his charge well in the long run, saying, "He’s got a great attitude and a willingness to please. He’s a horse that can handle different conditions and courses, and that’s a huge asset."
As Constitution Hill looks to continue his winning streak, fans and experts alike will be eagerly watching to see how he fares in the coming months. With his talent, versatility, and unbridled enthusiasm, it’s hard to bet against him becoming one of the leading lights in the world of National Hunt racing.
