Lydia Hislop and Ruby Walsh are back with the latest episode of Road To Cheltenham in association with our sponsors Paddy Power. The pair take a deep dive into the Champion Chase picture following Majborough's defeat on his seasonal return in the Hilly Way at Cork, whilst stable companion Il Etait Temps enhanced his credentials with a ruthless defeat of Jonbon and L'Eau du Sud. There's debate as to what Majborough and connections need to do to improve his jumping and a discussion about defending champion Marine Nationale who is set to make his return to action at Christmas. It's then onto the Arkle picture following the news that ante-post favourite Kopek Des Bordes will miss the Festive period through injury. His main opponent in the Arkle looks to be Lulamba who did his credentials no harm with an emphatic win in the Henry VIII Novices' Chase at Sandown. Ruby is a big fan of the Paul Nicholls-trained No Drama This End and the pair also look back at his impressive victory at Sandown, setting up a tilt at the Challow Novices' Hurdle.  Must-see compilations and best bits ➡️ http://y2u.be/Kfl2CXtG6xA Greatest Hits!

Why does Constitution Hill keep doing it? That was one of the key talking points in the latest episode of Road To Cheltenham as Lydia Hislop and Ruby Walsh dissected a dramatic Fighting Fifth Hurdle which saw Constitution Hill and The New Lion both fall, leaving the way for Golden Ace to land another major Grade One prize. The pair discuss what's next for Constitution Hill, The New Lion's jumping ability and (again) whether Sir Gino could be rerouted to hurdles. There's also a look at the novice hurdle division which includes a look at stand-out performances from La Divin Enfant and No Drama This End, whilst Teahupoo's epic victory over Ballyburn in the Hatton's Grace and Romeo Coolio's Drinmore romp also come under the microscope. The duo finally look ahead to this week's feature event, the Grade One Tingle Creek at Sandown as Il Etait Temps, L'Eau du Sud and Jonbon face off in the two-mile event.
