I'd be absolutely amazed if Sir Gino lines up for this.

If there is anything of the remotest substance in any Champion Hurdle "Trial," Nicky Henderson is not going to be too keen to run.
Wrapped in cotton wool, both on and off the racecourse, has been his tried, tested and trusted modus operandi between Cheltenham Festivals over the years.
The only exception to this policy is any actual Grade 1s along the way.

Lossie drifts to 6/1 for CH
And gets backed in to 2/1 for the Mares
2/1 a good price i'd say

You'll find 10 better 2/1 shots in the next 3 days.

Willie wants to win races. Nothing is beating Sir Gino.

Whilst I'd agree in part, 2 months is a very long time in horse racing i'd find it hard to believe they've made any concrete decisions about where Lossie is going unless they know they have something better.
I'd have thought nothing will be decided until after the ICH and if Sir Gino does run again inbetween now and tge festival I can't see it myself but the picture could well change.

Given that I'd want 2/1 about myself to cross the road, those odds about a beast (who still has a possible alternative target) for a contest two months hence make about as much appeal as Walsworth attempting to cook French cuisine.

No sign of any bookies going NRNB as yet so I'm just wondering what price the odds compilers on here would go about Constitution Hill on a NRNB basis?

Silly ew bet on Alexi at 50s.
I reckon it's 90% certain that he'll ride Lucky Place.
