2025 Champion Hurdle

[HoldenTheReins]

We will see.

Yesterday 'Blogger' put up a video on Constitution Hill 'flying up the gallops' at Seven Barrows, and in the background Nicky says he'll go for two canters (assume he meant gallops), all of the others have one.

He either takes a fair bit of work to get right, or Nicky thinks he's maybe a little bit fresh, but if he's happy to send him out twice he can't be in bad health.

Would be nice to know if they started alongside each other also

Probably best to wait for quotes from connections, and see if he’s entered for Newcastle.

Tempted to take 16/1 on Gino for the fighting fifth after watching that. Con Hill still not right..

Do we know CH is still not right?
Ive not seen anything apart from
on here.

I'd recommend watching the video. Visually, he looks to be working harder than he did when winning the Supreme. Not quite off the bridle, but not going smoothly. Sir Gino is barely out of second gear. To me, Sir Gino is either a 190 horse, or Con Hill isn't fit.

Thanks EE
Not a twitter person myself.
Have watched that, can’t really take much from that without knowing what stage of fitness both horses are at.
Cheers anyway though, appreciated.

Apparently Hendo talking soon on Sky Racing

Yeah - the thing is, we know he's meant to be running in 10 days time. Before Sir Gino. He shouldn't be that unfit.

Nico lying through his teeth on SSR. I'm sorry, that reporting is completely at odds with what I saw and also what the exchanges are saying.

What did he say?

[Magpie]

Sir Gino still 16s on unibet if anyone thinks he’s turning up.

I’ve no idea how much he believes what he said
But I do know that I don’t know what stage of fitness he needs to be at today, and how much needs to be left to work on before Newcastle.
I imagine he will need the first run though, and it will be a gradual build up to March.
Just wait and see for me I think.
Certainly ain’t reacting betting wise to that, that’s for sure!!
