Grade Two Coral Hurdle Guide 2022

Has pulled up, unseated his rider and fell in three of his last five races but has also shown promising form in between, boasting class one and two wins at the likes of Lingfield, Aintree, Fontwell and Taunton.

The trip is comfortable for him so that shouldn’t be a problem but going up against Constitution Hill could and should be tough.

Has been running consistently in class one company but last win was over two years ago now. Stepping up in trip could spark a change but it is hard to see that here, up against some better horses.

Has never ran here before and last outing (4th of five at Kempton) in October sparks little hope for victory.

Finished a disappointing third out of four at Ascot last time out in October at 11/8f when having his first start over fences.

Had shown some consistent form beforehand with wins at Wincanton and Sandown as well as back-to-back placings at Goodwood on the flat.

Going back over hurdles should suit him beeter having more experience in this code and could be in and around it if back to his best form but he is a very hard ride.

Has had success at Downpatrick, Naas, Navan and Fairyhouse but this poses a much bigger challenge for him.

Third of five at Wincanton earlier this month where he jumped poorly doesn’t provide much going into this and will probably struggle here.

249 days on from that memorable blistering victory in the Supreme at Cheltenham, Constitution Hill will be looking to follow that up with a fourth success out of four.

He blew stablemate Jonbon away that day and many will be hoping for more of the same going into jumps season.

He looks tough to beat here despite the long absence and is rightly rated the best in this race. This is a slight step up in distance but he has all the attributes to win comfortably here.
