Poor Nicky he can't catch a break. Then has to listen to some of the idiots on here when all he is doing is being open and kind enough to give us an update.
@markselwyn7014 aye . Give your head a wobble. Unibet are the main sponsor for CH. Henderson is a shambles now. Disgraceful the last three or four years. You never see the Mullins or Elliots stable going through this nonsense. De Boinville giving interviews last night saying " he's a good price now ".
Thank you nick it's good that this horse is being cared of this way as I remember a simalar occasion when I was an athlete doing P E at school I was vertically unbeatable when on an odd occasion I became lame believe me it was heartbreaking for me to pull myself up but this is most definitely the right thing to do as his record is flawless
I happen to think he's an honest guy I'd go as far as saying a gentleman but the horse clearly has a problem and I'd go back to last year when he said he worked terrible and then we didn't see him again, what a shame his supreme and champion wins, of the charts
If it ain't right it dont run, nicky always protecting his stable stars and rightly so, it's truly frustrating coz we wanna see the best take on the best but I hope to see a return one day soon, meanwhile sir gino is looking good 👍
Buckley needs to cop on an just send him to ireland to willie mullins a person who will run him every chance he gets not wrap him up and look at him in Box year In year out its shame a brilliant horse like that just rusting up due to nicky send him to willie mullins and we will see best of him hon ireland 💯❤️🇮🇪💪
Con Hill has had problems for a while, that’s why he wasn’t seen for much of last season. This notion that Hendo suddenly woke up and decided he didn’t want to run his best horse is laughable.
@@Ironsmiler He would have run before that in the Fighting Fifth if the meeting didn’t get cancelled and then Christmas, that’s a normal route for a top class horse. Everything after that was clearly down to physical issues.
@@thomascooper1144 Istabraq ran seven times in 97/98 and 98/99 seasons. If this was abnormal, it didn't seem to hurt him or his longevity. Neither did crossing the Irish Sea occasionally.
Crazy how he's always "injured" when close to big race just send him to willie mullins the irish ❤️💯🇮🇪💪 will show us the best of him and not every march just retire nicky your doothing at this age while everyone doing the hard work while u sit back and make terrible decisions 😢 time call it a day nicky easy tell why all the rich owners in England sending there horses to ireland and the fact they might scc see them /him run not once year he's race horse not a show room horse
Henderson hadnt a care in the world yesterday when interviewed yesterday. Now it's transpired that Constitution Hill has been lame for 48 hours. Why did the exchange market react before the announcement was made? And why are trainers sponsored or in any way connected with Bookmakers?
I like henderson, but he does have a history of being overprotective of his good horses. I mean, if you have a good footballer but only play him six or seven a season, he won't be as battle hardened as the players that play thirty-eight times a season.
A bloody shame one best hurdlers we might ever see in our life time while here but a man training as long as nicky should have more sense and run him he's lying up now long enuff yes he's a superstar nicky we get it micheal send him to mullins in ireland and u will reap the rewards and be millionair in 2 year with prize money cause what he's doing now is paying to look at him lie down in box and when I mean paying I mean 15k a month training fees a waste of a super horse say nico has alot to say in bad way but choose not to if he's not going run just retire him or send him to willie the irish will show u the best of him most weekends not every march ❤️💯🇮🇪💪
Its the type of horse he buys thet would all look good in the show ring but they dont last long thats why he specialises in two milers a couple of seasons and they are gone
The blame lies entirely on Micahel Buckley. He should have removed the horse from Nicky's stable long time ago and given it to either Nichols or young trainers like James Ownen.
Why dosent presenter ask why nico said to mat Chapman he's a good price now hes' backed in from 13 to8 to 11 /10 thur including myself yet according to Henderson been lame 48 hours then before announcement twitter sir gino 8s in to 5/4 how do bookmakers get to know before public if we stopped betting there would be no racing sorry I forgot Henderson sponsored by unibet another altior shocking must think we are all fools filling bookmakers satchels absoloutley disgracefull
Shishkin, Altior, Sprinter Sacre and now Constitution Hill. All looked horses of a lifetime and all had problems, cutting their careers short without going on to be the horses they should have been
@ yeah, to be fair,, he was 9 when the cracks appeared. Had wind surgery and couldn’t recapture its best. Still seemed premature though. And some sort of lameness occurred that triggered the end….
Willie mullins has top class horses that get problems so does Gordon Elliot so does Paul Nichols so does every big trainer ! In fact every year I can almost guarantee that I’ll read at least 1 or 2 articles on the racing post about a top class Mullins horse that’s missing the season due to a setback. And when that happens no one says a word it’s just accepted as bad luck. But when Henderson has a top horse that gets a problem everyone loses their minds 🤣 the only difference is that Mullins has that much depth of talent in his yard it doesn’t matter if a couple of good horses miss the season because he’s got another 4 or 5 to take their place and they go and win the big grade 1s anyway. So why’s it okay for other trainers horses to have setbacks but when Henderson horses do the angry mob comes baying for his blood ?
Never a lame step. He was destroyed by his stablemate in recourse gallop. IM Sure he was never lame .otherwise Nicky wouldn't have galloped him he won't make race at Newcastle. Ha don't get me wrong Nicky Henderson is a fantastic trainer.
I said earlier this year that the fact that Constitution Hill missed all of 2024 with various health problems, he will never recapture the brilliance he showed us all in 2023. This recent problem with lameness isn't good and it's beginning to look like he may be at the end of his racing career. I hope I'm wrong, but I fear the worst.
I’d have sent the horse to Paul Nicholls after his first Champion hurdle victory. Henderson , as great as he is, doesn’t seem to be able to keep his very best horses sound for long enough to fulfil their potential. It keeps happening. Don’t expect to see Constitution Hill anywhere near as good before he’s inevitably retired after a handful of sub par blowouts. So frustrating.
Why can't we all admit that this man is corrupt as hell. Has been showing contempt for punters for decades. Everybody and his mother could see there was an issue with his gallop at Newbury, but he was very positive about it. Rather than tell punters to hold fire before lumping on him he was adamant there was no issue. Guarantee that punters saw value in his price and lumped on. What a disgrace!
Such a great horse but clearly has big issues, Hendo will get all the stick obviously but it’s misplaced. Nobody will be more disappointed than him and there’s only so much you can control as a trainer.
I don't think Henderson is corrupt, but I honestly think he wraps his horses up too much. Horses like Constitution Hill come along once a lifetime... Please run him when possible! Not like he's going to stud after his racing career so run him...
I think its time for Henderson to retire. His horses haven't run well for a long while now and why he persists in using the useless Nico de Boinville as his stable jockey is a mystery to me.
Probably best to retire this horse before something unfortunate happens. Doesn’t seem to be able to stand up to the rigours of training/ racing. Unless maybe a new training regime, probably with a different trainer could be tried beforehand.
I think people are often OTT in their condemnation of Nicky, but on this occasion I have to agree with some of the jibes. It cannot be a coincidence that yard seems to have such an issue keeping the real good ones fit. There is such a thing as being too precious with a horse and I think there lies the problem at Seven Barrows. It’s why we rarely see his stars progress over hurdles onto becoming chasers in the Gold cup sphere, they’re just not hardy enough. For Nicky Henderson to have only two gold cups to his name given what’s come through the door is quite eye opening.
It’s always Nicky. Any controversy about the biggest horses over the jumps will always be to do with a Henderson horse. If you said they’ll be a horse going from 1/5 overnight to odds against, you’d guess it’d be Henderson. I’ve no idea what goes on here
@@kevinkenny6975 sorry Kevin, he’s been training for forty five years and in that time he’s had many a hurdler that should have went chasing but was too fragile to do so. I’m possibly being generous with the three gold cups, may only be two
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice - shame on me.
Poor Nicky he can't catch a break. Then has to listen to some of the idiots on here when all he is doing is being open and kind enough to give us an update.
Spot on. He's been at the top of the game for decades. If anything, he cares too much for the horses in his charge. Some of us find that admirable.

Now it’s a terrible gallop at Newbury, on the day everyone was happy. Dare I say Matt Chapman was right in his interview with Nico.
I happen to think he's an honest guy I'd go as far as saying a gentleman but the horse clearly has a problem and I'd go back to last year when he said he worked terrible and then we didn't see him again, what a shame his supreme and champion wins, of the charts
Strange how a lot of his top horses only last a couple of years. Truly great horses go on year in year out, e.g. Red Rum.
If it ain't right it dont run, nicky always protecting his stable stars and rightly so, it's truly frustrating coz we wanna see the best take on the best but I hope to see a return one day soon, meanwhile sir gino is looking good 👍

Absolute Wally. A lame horse isn’t going to run whoever trains him😂😂 your lord Willie wouldn’t have changed shit!
Buckley must be privately furious. When the horse was fit and well they very rarely ran him, now he is a sicknote there is no discernible difference.
Con Hill has had problems for a while, that’s why he wasn’t seen for much of last season. This notion that Hendo suddenly woke up and decided he didn’t want to run his best horse is laughable.

That appears to me to be a very real probability now.

Just retire the horse
