Saturday's high-profile fixture at Newcastle, which was due to stage the return of the brilliant Constitution Hill, has been abandoned due to snow on the track.
Nicky Henderson's charge was set to be the star of the show this weekend, in his bid for back-to-back victories in the Fighting Fifth Hurdle.
