I do not think he'll be 3rd. He's more likely to be pulled-up than 3rd, I think.

Should have been switched to the Flat. The horse has now lost all confidence over hurdles and why would you be surprised after that fall at Aintree

What a training genius Hendo is. A hurdle trace, and Hendo made the horse practised over fences. All the wait, and the horse put in the worst performance ever.

Poor stuff from connections. To travel over there with CH after those 2 bad falls, especially so after that second one. For me there were only 2 options and that should been done for the season and try again next season or take in a small race on the Flat (Kempton AW) before a crack at the Royal Ascot Gold Cup.

Report Whippin Piccadilly • May 2, 2025 7:45 PM BST
That was a really heavy fall at Aintree, Penzance. Horses haven't got up from much lesser falls. I'll remember him for "that" Fighting Fifth performance which is the most impressive performance I've ever seen from any Horse, Flat/Jumps. But now his confidence is completely shattered over jumps, I can't actually see him winning over hurdles again. The last throw of the dice is to switch to the Flat.
Report duffy • May 2, 2025 7:50 PM BST
He barely stays 20 over hurdles, against the likes of Kyprios et al he'd be marmalized, if he's going to the flat he would need to be racing over 12/14 furlongs.

A visibly distraught Nicky Henderson tried to find the words to explain what he had seen from Constitution Hill, who was examined by an IHRB vet post-race and found to have grazes to his right hind cannonbone and to be sore.

"It's disappointing but it's a tough game," the crestfallen trainer said. "It was sad he had to be beaten that way because you could live with going down in a battle. He was beaten two out and James looked after him. Something has obviously gone wrong because that's not him and our job is to try to unravel the mystery.

"He's got such a great mind, nothing worries him, but you can't look inside his head. He's very uncomplicated, unflustered and his work was good. He was travelling well turning in but then it was like flicking a switch."

There's nothing ambiguous about it

He posted a thread for Cheltenham pointing out it was a good lay at those prices for the top 3. This was obviously a following recommendation given what happened lto

antics at the start because of the falls so as it turned out Rico had more going for him than just another fall

Wasn’t Rico’s Constitution Hill thread at Cheltenham a back at 1/6 for the first three?
Report Angela Rebecchi • May 4, 2025 7:34 PM BST
I stand corrected ! Still, given it's last two runs I think this was being stated as an obvious value lay

1.16 is the clue imo. He backs them pre race at that price, not lay them.

my take on Rico;...massive kudos for being at the top of the i/r game from the outset (offices with fast feed and oncourse boxes) and one of the last to admit defeat to algorithms.im also of the belief that his bragadaccio posting winnings on here hastened both his and the i/r games demise.

his record of pre event is woeful..Klitschko,Barcelona,athletics etc..he is ****.

he is and always will be a BF legend but I fear his time has come and gone..
