No problems for Nicholls

Trainer Paul Nicholls has confirmed he has had no issues with equine flu at his Somerset stables and is very pleased to get back to racing.

Nicholls has confirmed that Clan Des Obeaux will run in the rescheduled Denman Chase at Ascot on Saturday.

The King George VI Chase winner is building up to next month’s Cheltenham Gold Cup and Nicholls says they have not missed any work due to the shutdown.

‘The horses were all vaccinated as normal just before Christmas, so it hasn’t affected us at all,’ said champion trainer.

‘I don’t know if it [the shutdown] was right or wrong.

We will learn lessons from it and it’s just good we are racing again.’
