Ruby Walsh is backing Gordon Elliott's "spectacular" mare Brighterdaysahead to give Constitution Hill a real run for his money in the Unibet Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham next week.
Constitution Hill is odds-on across the board to regain his title in the Festival's opening day feature, but in Brighterdaysahead he will face a new and serious rival.
