The best we've ever seen? Constitution Hill on course to eclipse Istabraq and co

Every now and again we get lucky and a once in a generation talent comes along.

This century there have been only four who I would put into that category. Istabraq, Kauto Star, Frankel and Sprinter Sacre make up the quartet, but there is a chance we are about to witness a fifth who can take his place alongside them in the pantheon of the sport’s greats.

Constitution Hill is the most exciting hurdler to grace the scene since Istabraq 25 years ago and he is a far better horse than Istabraq at this stage of their respective careers.
