Nicky Henderson (24 February 2026): "The plan is the Kim Muir. Nico thought he was our Arkle horse last year and we had to move him up in trip and he finally got there when finishing second in the Pertemps and then he won at Punchestown. He is not the easiest and he has to jump better. We would probably have to put some cheekpieces on as we did last year and he is not the most obvious one to me, but we will have to see. You would hope in a race like that they would go half a stride slower, at Windsor he was alright but just needs to sharpen up a bit."
Nicky Henderson (15 October 2025): "He ran a fantastic race when finishing a close second to our own Doddiethegreat in the Pertemps Final and then went onto Punchestown where he turned the tables on his old rival. He is still only six and we will have to think of going chasing again. He was brilliant jumping a fence, but he became flustered before the start in his attempt over fence at Sandown and his jumping just fell to pieces. Whichever route we go this season, he is potentially top-class."
Nicky Henderson (01 April 2025): "Jeriko Du Reponet will go for the three-mile handicap hurdle at Aintree on Saturday. He has run extremely well in his last three races, and he ran a super race in the Pertemps Final when runner-up to our Doddiethegreat. He has gone up 5lb for his Cheltenham effort, but he is in great from and, hopefully, he can put up another good effort."
