Constitution Hill once again made winning a top-level race look easy as he breezed to a 17-length success in the Ladbrokes Christmas Hurdle at Kempton.
National Hunt racing's new star had beaten stablemate Epatante - herself a previous dual Christmas Hurdle winner - by 12 lengths at Newcastle in the Fighting Fifth and the two met again, much to Nicky Henderson's chagrin.
