NICKY HENDERSON hugged Constitution Hill’s owner after the superstar’s ‘frightening’ Kempton workout – as a huge market move took place.
The former Champion Hurdle king powered away from the 126-rated Aston Martini and That’s Nice on his racecourse gallop.

Bookies weren’t blown away, though, with Coral keeping him 1-2 fav for the day one feature.
And the big move took place in the Mares’ Hurdle, where Brighterdaysahead was hammered back into fav on the Betfair Exchange.
Gordon Elliott’s awesome hurdler drifted markedly in the Champion Hurdle markets as Constitution Hill put on a show.
