Constitution Hill next race: Cheltenham Festival on the agenda for Nicky Henderson’s superstar

Posted by author February 17, 2025 Horse Racing

Constitution Hill brushed aside concerns about his current ability by blowing away Lossiemouth on his long-awaited return to the track.

The equine freak had been absent for 366 days due to an injury-disrupted campaign that meant he was unable to defend his Champion Hurdle crown in 2024.

The prospect of going chasing is well and truly a thing of the past as regaining the Champion Hurdle title from State Man is the key aim for the current campaign.

Constitution Hill next race

Constitution Hill is set to make his next appearance in the Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival on Tuesday, 11th March.

Speaking after Constitution Hill breezed to victory in the International Hurdle, despite a last-flight scare, in January, trainer Nicky Henderson said: “He’s just had a nice spin and it’s saved us a lot of galloping at home. We know where we are now and we can take it easy. As much as Nico says work him tomorrow, he will have a quiet week and then we will start the engines up again and prepare for the invasion.”

It could be the hottest renewal of the Champion Hurdle in a generation if State Man, Lossiemouth and Brighterdaysahead take their place in the field.
