Verdict
Nicky Henderson has had plenty of time to get Constitution Hill back on track, following his two falls and a heavy defeat at the three major spring festivals, and this multiple Grade 1 winner will take all the beating if he's close to his best. However, he certainly has a point to prove on his return to action and takes on two unbeaten youngsters in ANZADAM and The New Lion, who both have the potential to be top class. Anzadam was seriously impressive in Grade 3s last season on his first two starts for Willie Mullins and is preferred ahead of Turners winner The New Lion.[Ben Hutton]
